melon secret

We love melon around here.  Unfortunately we have not been able to find really sweet melons this year.  A little simple syrup will add that touch of sweet if your melon just isn't quite there.
Mix together 1/2C each water and white sugar, bring to a boil until the sugar is melted.  Let the mix cool and pour over cut and peeled melon.  Chill before serving.
I almost didn't get the bowl away from AH in time to take the picture.  It's a mix of watermelon and cantaloupe loaded with salt a pepper.
