I had no idea about how to tell when they were ripe, so they just sat there looking green and smug, swelling slightly by the day. then someone told me to knock them, and when they sound hollow, they are ripe. So I did that, and with great trepidation harvested the first one last night.....and I must say it was astounding - so delicious!
Grandson Laurence about to take the first-ever bite!
And here are a couple of little projects I have completed in the last little while.
With some friends!
Did I ever mention that I love my job?

I love home grown fruit and veggies. My husband works hard in his garden. Luckily, here in Northern California we can grow almost anything. So lglad you were able to get some melons!
Your dolls are all fabulous as always!!
hugs Karen
I don't have any luck with melons in my garden because our growing season is too short. We just purchased a small green house to get plants started so maybe I'll try them again and keep my fingers crossed.
I love seeing all of your sweet little creations. It's no wonder you love your job, you're so good at it.
