When the CSA overwhelms you with melon, it's time to dust off the kitchen aid ice cream maker attachment... With 2 fruit shares - I had 5 cantaloupes sitting on my counter this afternoon - taunting me with their ripeness. So, my mind obviously went to sorbet. Inspired by Alton Brown's recipe, I got to work. I sliced and diced for a small eternity - which in addition to the 4 pounds of melon I turned into sorbet, still yielded 4 freezer quart bags of cut melon to nosh on through the week. 
Ingredients:
4 pounds cantaloupe chunked1 cup fresh lemon juice (where I got to use my kitchen aid citrus juice attachment for the first time... Thanks, Tina!)
3 cups sugar
6 T vodka
Directions:
In batches, since it turns out 4 pounds of melon won't fit in the food processor, blend all ingredients. Put in fridge for a few hours to chill sorbet liquid.
Then following ice cream maker directions - mix it up in the ice cream maker... I had enough to make some popsicles, too.
Can't wait to dive into a bowl of this... the spoonful I taste tested was mighty good!
