Sisters #1 -- Relaxing in the summertime!
On a recommendation from one of the Sisters #2, we have been watching Friday Night Lights.....a great series about a small town in Texas and their football team and their lives! You might think this is a sedentary activity but I can assure you that we are sitting in our dual recliners exercising our legs by pushing the foot rest up and down 10 times an hour! Tonight we had a "Granita" that Shirley made.....Watermelon, fresh ginger, honey, lime juice. Here's the recipe:
Combine 4 cups cubed watermelon with 6 T. honey, 1 T. fresh lime juice, and 2 tsp. finely grated fresh ginger in blender. Puree until smooth. Transfer to shallow 1 1/2 qt. dish, cover, and freeze overnight. Break up clumps with a fork until the texture is grainy. Refreeze 20 minutes or until firm. Keep frozen until ready to serve.
