A nice refreshing recipe from the Restaurant Black Forest. Lemon sorbet. 500 ml water 500 g white sugar, 4 large lemons, juice and zest. 1 medium egg, whites only whisked separately. Method: Heat the water and sugar until the sugar has dissolved. You need to stir constantly for the sugar to dissolve completely. Allow to cool overnight in your refrigerator and add the lemon juice and zest. Stir. Place in chilled bowl of your ice cream maker and process according to manufacturers’ instructions. 10 minutes before it is finished add the already whisked egg whites. If you don’t have an ice cream maker you can still make your own sorbet by following the following procedure: Pour liquid into a pre-frozen metal container and put into the freezer until half frozen (approx. 1 hour). Stir with a metal whisker. Repeat this procedure 3 more times. At the last (4th) procedure add the already whisked egg whites. Return to the freezer until firm. Best let it in the freezer for another 6 hours. Have a nice summer and remember they are open again on Sunday, June 24th

Punta de Mita
A few messages from PEACE….PEACE needs you! They have a deadline to build a new roof for their headquarters costing $13,000 USD. The Casa Campesina (farmhouse) has been PEACE’s home base for the past three years and was given to us by the local ejido (a native land-owners association.) PEACE has full use of the house in exchange for restorations and we cannot remain here unless we raise $13,000 and repair our leaky roof. Please give whatever you are able and allow us to stay in our community home! A new roof will provide the necessary dry space for our alternative school, after school program and PEACE Boutique, as well as a usable work space for staff and community members. It is a safe, clean, and friendly environment that adds stability, integrity, and beauty to the Punta de Mita community. We do not want to uproot our home. PLEASE DONATE whatever you can by going to http://www.peacemexico.org/donate.php .
Experiences at summer camp can shape a life from childhood into adulthood. PEACE is creating lifelong memories for kids in the Bahia de Banderas who often grow up too fast, and in many cases have never been on an athletic team, taken an art class or participated in any kind of organized activity. Our camps not only give them that experience, but allow them the freedom (they may otherwise not have) to just be kids! These kids are the FUTURE – help us empower them! Last year we had 300 campers! Your donation of $75 USD will send one child to camp for 3 weeks, helping them retain knowledge from the school year, and allowing them to experience a SAFE, POSITIVE and FUN summer! We cannot fund our camps without your support. Please help us provide this experience for local children by donating to http://www.peacemexico.org/donate.php
Starting this summer, a traveling classroom will be accompanying our animal clinic to 35 towns! Our fun-loving, bilingual teacher will conduct a literacy-based curriculum about animals and the environment reaching 6,210 kids every year. In order to educate our youth and continue to spread this powerful message over the course of one year, we need to raise $15,000 USD. Please help us reach our goal by donating to http://www.peacemexico.org/donate.php
