It worked!

Last night, I splurged on this fruit bowl at Costco. I got home to smooshy grapes, sour pineapples, and mango that was the equivalent of a kelly green banana. I was so disappointed. I didn't want to throw away $13 worth of fruit, so I turned it into......something. I don't know if it's a granita, or italian ice, it's not really a sorbet or sherbert (which is kind of what I was going for). Whatever it is, it's good! It didn't freeze solid, so it scrapes off with a spoon. The fruit pureed to just over 2 cups. I added that to simple syrup (1c. water and 1c. sugar) and a little lemon juice. Today, it's yummy.
