When I was a kid, my little brother and I would compete in the watermelon eating contest every year at our county fair. If you won, you would get to pick out your choice of any watermelon that you wanted from the back of a loaded-down watermelon-pickup truck. The first year that we competed, we were both quite sad that we did not win. We both said that we would “practice” for next year. Did that happen? Of course not; but eventually we both won for our age division! My parents were certainly proud of us, but I think that they were a bit concerned that we both happened to pick one the biggest watermelon that we could find! We did have watermelon with every meal! Mom tried to get us to drink watermelon smoothies, but we did not go for that. Now I love watermelon anything! Here are two Torani recipes that are to die for!
