Of cantaloupes and cats


I bought my first cantaloupe of the season, and as I sliced into it I thought of how, whenever I'd start cutting up a melon, Ernie would be immediately in the kitchen, meowing his "give me some of that, and make it snappy" meow. He liked all melon, but cantaloupe was his fave.

This was a pretty good melon, as melons go. It would have tasted even better if Ernie had been here to share it with me. Miss that boy.

The cantaloupes look like a Thiebaud painting. Beautiful.

Now that's a compliment. Since whether it was meant for the photographer or the melon isn't clear, the blogger will accept for both. Thanks, Susan!
