Cantaloupes in season

Look at the size of this cantaloupe melon I got at the grocery store last week.  It wasn't even the largest one. It was only 99 cents. I bought 3 of them. Two of them were markedly sweeter than the third, oh well.


In other food news, I read in the newspaper about (water) Buffalo Milk ice cream, apparently it's really thick and delicious due to 7 or 8% fat content. There is a cafe in Toronto that keeps selling out of the stuff. Do you think you'd give it a try?

99 cents is cheap! Good buy! And no, I would not try buffalo milk ice cream. Ewwww.

Your melon looks gorgeous. I got some recently from the supermarket before closing time on a Saturday, and they were also a total bargain and sooooooooooo good! That ice doesn't sound bad either! Valerie

I wish I knew the secret to chosing good melons, its hit and miss for me always.I think I would pass on the buffalo milk, we are trying to watch the fat while Garry is recuperating from the heart surgery, its probably good for you though, have a good day Christine

I would totally try buffalo milk ice cream!I imagine it would taste similar to normal ice cream, but I like ice cream!!

At store shopping for watermelon. Not knowing how to find a good melon. Looking at melons. Knocking on the melons as though that will somehow tell me if the melon is good. Lady walks up. Looks amazed and says something to the effect of 'WOW. That's a perfect melon!!' Me: "Really!?" Her: "I don't" She walks away. I was sad.
