Mmmm… Marvelous Melons!

Melon Balls

Summertime is melon time – fresh canteloupe with berries for breakfast, cool watermelon slices at a BBQ, white wine sangria with honeydew on the beach…  There’s nothing like the sweet, juicy, refreshing taste of melon on a hot summer day!

Even melon hues have a cool and calming effect, don’t they?  Hope your weekend includes some marvelous melon time!

    i’m not huge into the melon colors or even eating them too much – but i totally get their “fresh” vibe!

    Watermelon is one of my absolute favorite fruits of summer! My family easily devours one whole watermelon a day. I need to buy three of them at a time in the summer! Also, the first image brought a smile to me face, as that was my “job” when I was young. My mother was insistant upon serving melons as melon balls in scooped out melon shells when I was little. When we bought our home in the Hamptons she gave me a melon scooper as one of the housewarming gifts…I had to give it away. I prefer to slice, chunck and eat!
