Come to Me .. My Melon-Calling Baby


You may not be aware of this but .. August 3 is National Watermelon Day (just in case you didn't 'seed' TWI's post on Facebook).

There are more than 1200 varieties of watermelon, ranging in size from less than a pound to more than two hundred pounds (the latter is very popular at family reunions .. you only need one).

They come in four fruity "flesh" colors - red, orange, yellow and white .. they are precious in His sight .. and an average watermelon contains about 6% sugar and 92% water by weight (it is an excellent source of vitamin P).

The temperature is supposed to be 101 degrees here in West Tennessee today. When you factor in humidity, that should make it like .. 138.

That makes it a great day for cold watermelon .. any way you slice it!
