Cantaloupes!



Will and I have picked our first (ripe) cantaloupe! We had picked one earlier in the month and when I cut it open (after sitting it on our counter for two weeks), it wasn't even close to being ripe.

This one we know is ripe-- the lovely seductive cantaloupe smell! The rind is just soft enough. And the smell--it's so.... cantaloupey!

Will and I plan on cutting this open for breakfast tomorrow.... if you come over, we *might* give you a sliver.

The best part, too, is that there are two more still growing in the garden. One is hiding behind the air conditioning unit, but we found it and can't wait to eat it.
