So we are often asked if we are going to close when baby comes.  Nope, not unless someone wants to pay our bills!  So in preparation for baby coming, which we think will happen around week 38 or so based on Lauren's arrival (we know every pregnancy is different), we are starting to get together some things that we can do ahead of time to make breakfast time easier.  Hence project Sorbet stockpile!  We started doing sorbets as our fruit course just before Lauren was born and our guests love it, its different, refreshing, and especially when the days get hotter, cool!  First we have to find some space in the freezer to store the said sorbet, and second source some containers to put the said sorbet in.  Here are the sorbet flavors I have come up with so far.  I think 7 – 10 flavors will be enough, give us enough variety in case we do have longer stays, and enough to last a while as well.

Strawberry
Banana Coconut
Raspberry
Plum
Grape (haven't made this one yet, but we have lots of grape concentrate from last years concords so I'm going to try it)
Minted Melon
Peach Vanilla Rooibos
Kiwi
Peach
Orange

Other flavors to consider:
Rose
Lavender
Lemon
Watermelon

My favorites are the minted melon (cantaloupe or tuscan), and the banana coconut, although the Peach Vanilla Rooibos is good too.  Wait what am I saying they are all good!  We use our own strawberries, raspberries, grapes, and plums when I make those flavors, if we have them.  We might get kiwis this year on our vines, and we do have one peach tree, but so far we have only gotten one peach from it.  Last year we tried to grow melons but we weren't successful, plus the fruit that did start to grow on it didn't look like a cantaloupe.  If anyone figures out how to grow oranges, bananas and coconuts here in the NW let me know.  Our lemon tree (A Meyer) didn't do so well, even indoors it died.   Although in its defense it died when we weren't here to look after it and it was very cold that winter.

Any other interesting combination or flavors we should try?
