Poor-man's Gin Melon

1. Dice one-half melon on sale in the reduced produced section of your co-op (bonus points for getting an additional discount for being an employee).
2. Line a martini glass with citrus bitters your mom bought you (the bitters and the glass).
   
3. Fill glass with desired amount of pre-chilled gin (mid-shelf--good enough but won't break the bank. I prefer Gordon's).
4. Skewer melon pieces on a toothpick and garnish.
5. Slurp down in a folding chair on your lawn on a spring day.
