There are a lot of good things about Summer, except the oppressive heat of course, and one of them is watermelon. Niel and I go through so much of it. We eat a big one every other week all by ourselves. Last week Niel found a miniature watermelon. I had seen them a while ago but they were new to my area and still pricey. Niel spotted them on sale and brought one home. It was so tasty. It lasted much shorter than a whole one does but again it was so tasty.

We haven't had as much luck with the mini watermelons. We've tried them twice and they haven't been very sweet. So we usually stick with the regular size. It's funny because I remember growing up there used to be long watermelons, and then there were the rounded ones. I don't really see the long ones anymore. I guess the long ones are the seeded ones and most people prefer the fat, round unseeded variety.

Ooh. That looks great. I have yet to find any really yummy watermelon here yet. I shall have to look again. We like to take that melonballer gadget and scoop the whole thing out in little balls and store it in tupperware in the fridge so we have yummy fruit all the time.

I've seen those too but haven't tried one yet. Looks good.

They DO cost more, but I think the small ones usually have better flavor! Sweeeeeter.
