Couples Retreat

We had a grand time at the Wellness Center’s Couples Retreat last weekend – including making our own lunch! I provided the recipes and a little assistance, and everyone just jumped in. How much fun it is – to cook and eat together. Thought I’d share our dessert recipe. We served the fruit over “Whole Fruit” brand sorbet. If you haven’t enjoyed “Whole Fruit” sorbet, you need to try it – so delicious. My favorite two flavors are lemon and mango, but there are lots more to try. The fruit topping is so easy, and looks beautiful, too. A perfect ending for a fun day together.
