I agree on the watermelons. Beau is OBSESSED with growing melons, and to his credit, he’s getting better at it.

But...guess who gets to cut them up? Yep. And I hate every minute of it. I can’t think of a less nutritious, space hogging, water hogging thing to grow. I don’t allow them in MY garden. He plants them in the lower garden with the winter squashes and sweet corn, potatoes and popcorn.

This has been an ongoing ‘conversation’ since the day we met, LOL! And don’t even get me started on the year he grew Spaghetti Squash! THAT was a ‘hill’ too far! ;)

Don’t mean to get in to personal details but you do realize he might be eating all those watermelons for you, right?

Watermelon. Turn it into Agua de Sandia, mash it up, strain the seeds out and put it in the frig in a pitcher. Very refreshing and tasty late summer drink.

Some recipes say to puree it with seeds and water in down to lemonade consistency. YMMV
