Watermelons are symbolic to Summertime here in the Philippines. Although nowadays, with the trends in agriculture and propagation, watermelons can now bear fruit all year round. Before, these were just summer crops grown in rotation during drier months like March to June due to its strength and hardiness during droughts.
In this time of the pandemic, fruits can be a luxury even in our home so whenever we get a fruit or two, especially this watermelon, it really is a treat for me not just to my tastebuds but also to my eyes! There's something about watermelons that feels refreshing even Just the sight of it! Do you get that too with these?
By the way, it's a brand new month! Happy June everybody around the world!
...I think that watermelon is a classic summer treat around the world. But I miss the seeds!
ReplyDeleteYou are right Tom! I can still remember them full of so many black and yellow seeds but now most of them are gone.
DeleteCan I know what you're doing to us?
ReplyDeleteI really like watermelons ... and now it's Sunday! Where can I buy it!
LOL
HAHAHAHA Ella!!! I also posted it because I miss it and we had this one about a week ago and now I can't find any HAHA
Deletehappy New Week Ella!

DeleteHappy June! Watermelon is such a good summer fruit. I just bought some the other day myself. Enjoy. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteHappy June dear Erika! Sending you a slice of this cold Watermelon! But I'm sure the one you had was sweeter than this one (a little bland, this one we got HAHA)
DeleteWe grew watermelon commercially for a few years (a long time ago) and almost lived on them as we had so many. I still enjoy a nice chilled watermelon, with or without seeds!
ReplyDeleteWooow! I would love a field of watermelons Margaret! I do love it too especially on hot summer days :)
DeleteAs if deliberately at the same time, I just happened to eat watermelon before reading this review 🍉 ..., makes me want to devour again :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so amazing Himawan! neighbors we really are haha more fruits for us all!
DeleteIsn't it strange? When on holiday in Greece or the Med, we will always eat melon with breakfast fruit, but back home we would never dream of buying one. Perhaps we enjoy other fruits just that little bit more, especially strawberries!
ReplyDeleteOh Phil I loooove strawberries so much! Those only grow on the mountains here so whenever we visit those cities that grow them, we eat kilos of eat haha
DeleteThey are looking good and are good !
ReplyDeleteYes to that Karl! Have a slice :)
