Melon / Melon charentais

Saan nga ba nanggaling ang melon? o ang kanilang tinatawag na melon ng charentais? parang natatandaan ko na kasing sarap ito nung natitikman kong melon sa pilipinas. maging ang melon na tanim ng papa ko sa malabon ay ganun din kasing sarap. there's so much story to tell! my goal is to prove it! ( kung gaano katamis at kasarap ang melon na natikman ko sa pinas ) i have to prove it! melon tasting is on the list :)

                     an explanation of melons origin by le grand almanach des charentes book

  for the pineau and melon lovers, a drink recipe of melons au pineau from the book
We feasted by eating Oysters  and melons during our summer holiday. Now, i can still see plenty of melons in the supermarket but i dont tend to buy mas masarap kasi sila when they're in good season. Before i just only eat melons as panghimagas but here it serves as a starter and good eating with bread and butter :)

                                                   every slice is refreshing for the summer heat

                                              i can finish 3 to 4 slices in one sitting superlicious!
