I was at my parents the other day - opened the fridge for a snack - woot woo WATERMELON! Watermelon has been a staple in the Urban's fridge for as long as I can remember. I remember being little and eating it as dessert. My mom would cut us slices - and my dad would always eat the ends like he as eating it out of a bowl. When I was younger, it was the seeded watermelon. I don't know if it was a price thing - or maybe they didn't have seedless watermelon back then. I dunno - but I'm happy it's been switched to the seedless variety!
I hated spitting those seeds out and of course I was so scared to swallow one because my brother told me a watermelon would grow inside me. Gotta love big brothers :/
Anywhos - cutting open a watermelon just smells and tastes like summer! I love it.
I bought one at the store tonight. It was nice and cold - I sliced it up and stored it in the fridge. Of course I took a few pieces while I did it :)
Back then I think we ate our weight in watermelon. Now I think I eat double my weight in watermelon. So so good! I love you summer time - and watermelon :D
