Here's a couple of Q&A's for the week:
Last week I asked how to tell if a cantaloupe was ripe. A reader responded with this hint....
To find a ripe cantaloupe: Smell the stem end. If it smells ripe, it is. Even if it is soft, it won't smell ripe if it was picked green. I personally like to have the skin "give" a little. That indicates the ripeness I like. My mother preferred them squishy! You need to learn what the cantaloupe feels like at your preferred ripeness.
Q: How do you know if there's a coupon for an item?
A: I remember a lot of coupons that come in the newspaper, but I also use technology when my memory fails. One place I go is http://www.coupontom.com/. Just start typing a product name and it'll come up with coupons that match. Not all coupons are in this database and sometimes the Sunday coupons don't seem to be in there right away. But this is a great source for a quick "is there a coupon I can use" question.
