The Watermelon


 Sitting around eating watermelon before The Bachelorette comes on. Husbandman always grades our watermelons.  He says tonight's watermelon was a "solid B."  He's a super hard grader when it comes to watermelons.  The watermelon we just consumed was excellent in its juiciness and crunchiness.  I'd easily give it an A.

But, here's the bad news. Did you know that you could die if you eat a whole watermelon?  

Watermelon's great in a lot of ways, but people have died from eating too much, so my advice is: enjoy one slice or two and then move on to some other activity.

Good advice.

Note to self: Never serve watermelon to HM.

Have we ever heard of anyone actually dying of watermelon? It seems highly unlikely; although, I'm glad to know of the slight risk.
