well, I don't know how much I'll be cooking but I did buy some 'real' groceries today and some cantaloupe and watermelon fresh out of the fields (I love this time of year!)

you haven't lived until you've had a fresh Pecos cantaloupe!! :evilgrin:

and I got a Jubilee watermelon too, a Texas favorite :bounce:

edit to add this wonderful recipe I found....

Watermelon, Cantaloupe and Red Pepper Salsa

1 pound watermelon
1 pound cantaloupe
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 small sweet onion
1/3 cup packed fresh cilantro sprigs
1/2 fresh jalapeno pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Remove rinds and seeds from melons and cut fruit into 1/4-inch cubes. Cut bell pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. Finely chop onion and cilantro and wearing rubber gloves, finely chop jalapeno with seeds.

In a bowl, toss together all ingredients and season with salt. Salsa may be made 4 hours ahead and chilled covered. Makes about 4 cups.
