Light Summer Dessert: Peach Buttermilk Sherbet

I'm focused on making ice creams and frozen desserts. I think it's the heat here. We've had an early, hot, and humid summer, and I need something to cool off. I've also been out in the garden hauling mulch, topsoil, compost, and plants. And digging and replanting ferns, hostas, and Creeping Jenny. I'm trying to create a shade garden in an area that hasn't grown grass for years. It's a big project--one that, in retrospect, might best have been left to professionals. Non
