And some watermelon and cantaloupe to go with it

As long as there’s some Tajin for the watermelon.

Oh naw.......This is what I like to do. Cut the melon up when it's good and ripe. Place it in sealed containers in the frig. Let it sit a few days till it looks like light frost on the top. Man!! That is so sweet!!! And you have the juice in the bottom to drink after you finish the container. It just doesn't get any better than that!!

Tajin isnt hot. Just like a mexican season salt with a hint of lime.

Interesting. I guess the white frost is the sugars crystallizing. Have to try that

Exactly. Did chicken kabobs on the grill with onion, peppers, pineapple and Tajin. Delicious

Tried to post a pic or two of my fruit trees but it says "file too big". I'm on my 4th gallon of blueberries as of this morning. Almost a gallon of elderberries in the last week and a 5 gallon bucket of granny smith apples yesterday. The deer got all but 2 of my plums but I enjoyed the ones I got.

Getting about 1.5 gallons a day of blueberries. Blame deer killed all my okra and sunflowers, now eating on the sweet potatoes…
