I learned how to cut a cantaloupe when I was a teenager working at Old Country Buffet. I didn’t know how valuable a skill the Lord allowed me to learn way back then. I hardly knew how to cook at all, and could really care less about it at the time. Now, I love cooking! And have a growing family who actually likes to eat my cooking. And now, I am able to share this skill of cutting cantaloupes with you today.
Here we go!
First, slice off the ends. This makes it easy to slice the cantaloupe without is sliding around your counter top:

Next, stand up your cantaloupe on the flat side we just cut. We are going to slice the rind off all the way around. Like in the picture:

It should look like this when you are finished going all the way around:

Now, slice the cantaloupe in half ( long wise) and scoop out the seeds with a spoon (or your hand):

After scooping out the seeds, place the cantaloupe “hollowed” side down and slice into thin pieces. See picture:

You can leave it like this for eating:

Or, cut the slices one more time in the opposite direction for chunks or wedges:

That’s it! It’s as simple as that.
Happy slicing, cutting and eating!

I recently checked out a book from the library called, The Simple Art of Napkin Folding, by Linda Hetzer. Let me tell you; I have been having so much fun playing around with my napkins! The funny thing is, if the kids were playing with the napkins they would probably get scolded for it, but when Mommy does it, it is now called being creative and constructive. There are so many double standards in the world.
I actually caught onto the idea of folding our cloth napkins from one of my daughters. She has checked this book out before and had a really good time folding the napkins into different styles for our meals. It was a nice added touch and brought a bit of elegance to our simple meals.
I thought I would share a few of the more simple folds with you and see if I can get you addicted to folding your napkins all “fancy” like for your meals too.
This fold is called the Buffet Server II. I think several of these napkins would be really cute set up on a buffet table. It makes a nice little bundle that is easy to pick up for your guests. I could even picture this with a paper napkin and plastic cutlery. I think this would work well for a casual meal as well by placing the folded napkin on the middle of the plate.

First you will want to start with your napkin open:

Next you will fold your napkin in quarters, placing the free (or loose) points at the upper left:

Now fold the upper left corner of the top layer down to the lower right corner:

Fold under the top right and bottom left corners:

Ta dah! We did it. Now all we need is something to tuck into the little pocket we made. I thought it would be cute to put a little place card, flower or maybe even a sucker (for after dinner, of course) into the pocket. You could really change it up for whatever the occasion.
Stay tuned: next time I hope to show you the Fan fold.
How about you? Do you have a favorite way to fold your napkins? Or any other simple way to “jazzy” up your meals? I would love to hear about them!

There are lots of baking items listed this week as being on sale, but their prices don’t compare to Aldi so I did not list them. If you see a really good deal or coupon that I missed leave a comment so we can all share in on the wealth.
While you are at Coupons.com printing your Pillsbury coupons make sure you print of the Cottenelle Q. You can get a free 4 pack of toilet paper with it at Dillons!
