Very strange combo.

After seeing the combination of prosciutto and cantaloupe numerous times on the web and in food magazines, I decided to be brave and try it. I bought the melon from a farm stand down the street for $1, and the prosciutto was only $3.99 at Trader Joes. The salty flavors in the meat paired perfectly with the sweetness from the melon, without being too overpowering. Each has their own unique flavor, but when combined, they produce this explosion of taste that I cant really describe. It's flavorful, yet delicate. Definitely not what you would expect with two very different foods paired together. All in all, for $5.00 it was a very successful experiment, and I suggest you try it!

So excited!!! :D

Hello World!

For those of you who may have thought I fell off the face of the earth, please be assured that I am still alive. I don't know how many people actually read this blog, or even noticed that I haven't posted in about 3 months, but I have good reason. I graduated from college!!!!! :D That's right, I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Ecology and Evolution from the University of California, Santa Barbara! One of the many reasons I am thrilled to be done with school is so that I can get back to blogging!! I recently moved to a new house as well. During my time away from Chamomile and Honey, I still managed to take some photos. This post is meant to be a photo album of what I have been doing recently, as well as what I was up to.
