Sweet cold cantaloupe
Brings back childhood memories
Of Grandpa’s garden
When I picked up the vegetables and fruit from the Farmers
Market last Wednesday, one of the bags had a cantaloupe. I put it in the
refrigerator so it could get cold. I cut it up and peeled it today and then,
before putting it back into the refrigerator I tasted it. It was delicious and
brought back memories from my childhood.
My Grandfather planted a garden every year. One of the
things he planted was cantaloupe. I remember waiting impatiently for the
cantaloupe to grow and ripen so that we could eat it. This afternoon, when Mom
comes from the daycare center she will have a couple of slices. I know she will
enjoy it, even if she does not remember Grandpa’s garden; she will enjoy eating
the cantaloupe.
