Here’s yet another new blog (I should say new to me) that I just recently discovered, The Cilantropist. It’s not a gluten-free blog — far from it in fact. The one thing that attracted me to it was some of the amazing dessert and drink ideas. Lots of homemade yogurt and this delicious looking Lemon Thyme Sorbet paired with sparkling wine — needless to say, I’m in heaven.

“I made this lovely drink over the weekend to share with friends and to honor my wonderful mother (whom I missed dearly on Mother’s Day – too bad we can’t share a hug over Skype!). I figured if it turned out well, I would just keep it as an ace in my pocket to share with you for the next holiday or celebration. But then I started making the Lemon Thyme Sorbet…and it was fresh and sweet and tart all at the same time. Once the first frozen spoonful hit my tongue, the corners of my mouth turned up in a smile – the flavor was just somehow happy.
Then I got a little inspired and decided to put some sorbet in lemon ‘cups,’ and well, it was all downhill from there. I was completely smitten by the taste, but the overall cuteness factor was just too much for me – and I hadn’t even gotten to the wine yet…”
