| The text read: Now all the watermelon eating you and Jim have been doing is making sense. |
I shared the good news with Jim on our way to town for errands today. We giggled and then I promptly forgot about it.
On the way home, I asked if he wanted to stop at a farm stand for sweet corn for dinner.
He added, with a grin, "And a watermelon?"
So, yes, we got a watermelon. Now, I cannot and will not attest to watermelon's Viagra-like affect. The only thing I can think of is that with all the peeing you do after eating it, you're just awake more at night ... which could lead, I suppose, to an increase in your amorous activity.
I'll let you buy your own watermelon and conduct your own research.
Tips for Buying a Great Watermelon:
1. Take Jim along. I always buy crappy ones and he always buys good ones.
2. He flicks it with his fingers and listens to it. Sometimes he smells the stem. I think it's all BS and for show. I've also heard that you want a yellow spot on the outside rind.
3. My Boscobel grandma always said to buy a cut watermelon and find one with a big crack in it. If there was a crack, it would be firm and sweet. That advice has never been wrong.
This is what I found when I cut into Jim's farm stand pick today:
