'Tis the Season for Watermelon!
Recently bought a seedless watermelon and was anxious to get it home. To my surprise when I cut it open it was not the hot pink that I'm accustom to seeing, but a pineapple yellow! It tasted pretty good but wanted to enhance the flavor. Used the last of the honey and didn't want granulated sugar, so I thought, "why not try brown sugar?" And, you know what? It is delicious! Sometimes things just work out in a delicious way. What have you combined to make watermelon even better than it already is?! (The photo is of a watermelon...hot pink(!) I cut in half and what a wonderful surprise to see such a beautiful design!)

I've been enjoying pureed watermelon with Leopold Bros. Aperitivo (similar to Campari but without the red #x).
gorgeous pic!
Tonight, I'm making a Big #ss Salad that Mark Sisson posts every summer. I'm adding melon, Burrata cheese (so obsessed) and possibly some Ortiz tuna that I grabbed at Zupans. I can't decide if the tuna will be a good addition. The dressing is a very herby lemony dressing.

Make a slushy.
And, some even poke a hole in the rind, add an immersion blender to liquefy the contents, add vodka and serve at picnics, etc.
