I was in charge of a cut up fruit today for Sunday dinner.
So Boyfriend and I went to the local fruit stand on Friday and bought 2 cantaloupe.
This is how the conversation with Mr. Man went:
Me: "I need two of your best looking cantaloupes"
Mr. Man: "Okay!! When are you going to eat them?"
Me: "Sunday..."
Me: "Sunday..."
Mr. Man: "Oh good cause I just ran out of the ones that would be ripe for today. Let's see what I can find..."
Fast forward like...30 seconds
Mr. Man: "Here you go! Just leave these on the counter till then and you'll be fine. Then, most people like them chilled...well I do anyway, so cut them up and put them in the fridge about 2 hours before you serve it"
Me: "Sweet! Thanks!!"
Mr. Man: "That'll be $5.00"
Me: "Awesome. I can totally do that."
Gave him the money and we were on our way.
Boyfriend and I have decided that we are going there whenever we have to buy fruit that he sells.
To top it all off, the fruit was AMAZING!!
I took pictures for you.
Never fear! :D
Doesn't that just make you salivate?
It does me...
It does me...
Anyway, I'm off to say night to Boyfriend and then off to bed...
So...
NIGHT! :D

Hey, I thought Noelle was in charge of fruit for Sunday? Or did she manage to pawn that assignment off too? ;) And where, pray tell, do you get these cantaloupes? I've been guilty of buying some very mediocre melons lately and I want some good ones!
Peach was in charge of fruit for Saturday. I won the Sunday shift. :)
You know that fruit stand across the street from the Pizza Factory? And from Los Hermanos? On 400th North in Lindon? That one.
