Berry Pepper Cilantro Sorbet, Perfect for Cinco de Mayo

Planning a Cinco de Mayo fiesta? Here’s a twist on the popular paletas, those Mexican ice pops made with fresh seasonal fruit. If you don’t have the setups for making ice pops, try this refreshing sorbet recipe I whipped up utilizing fresh strawberries, blueberries and my favorite herb, cilantro.

Nothing says hospitality and neighborly friendliness like a front porch so it’s only appropriate Tallahassee, Florida’s capital recognized for Southern hospitality, has a new restaurant named The Front Porch with a famed chef  at the creative culinary helm. I really, really, REALLY wanted to like this restaurant (located at the former location of Chez Pierre for those of you familiar with Tallahassee) yet my dinner experience this week fell short of my expectations.
