It sat for weeks in the garden. Getting bigger and bigger.
Finally a thump, thump, thump on the hard shell said it was time for pickin'.
Cutting it in half revealed the sweet pink-red flesh inside.
Prepare for sticky hands, drippy elbows and spitting of seeds.Yum, Yum, Yum!
Before I bit in I could swear it winked and smiled at me!This small but delicious watermelon was grown right here Round The Bend.

I love watermelon!
I played too. Mine are here and here.
The soft ruby is sweet, with a satisfying crunch. The ripe red fruit is the tasty end to a perfect meal...
Looks so mouth-wateringly delicious!
I love that red water melon.

OMG you grew that? Did you send me a slice? LOL It looks yummy!!! And I love the smile in it. It must have seen all the beauty and goodness from your heart :) Have a wonderful Monday :)
This is definitely the time of year for watermelon. This one looks really tasty!
What a fun series. How clever that you found a smile.
I am amazed that you grow your own watermelons. It looks delicious.
How clever! To start wit the green and end with the red!
What a great post! I can just taste smell and feel the juice from that melon slice.
Nothing better than straight from the garden.
Oh Carletta, you are SO cruel...that looks so darn good. I'm going to have to go to the market and get one NOW! Beautiful macro...
That looks yummy.. Great photos.
Oh how yummy looking, I can almost smell the watermelon. I love that last shot!

Love watermelon and love your shots. I think it winked at me, too. Very nice! Thanks for sharing.
Ahhh, one of the great gifts of summer - nice shots!
Save a piece for me--I will be right over!
Nothing says 'summer' like home-grown watermelon. I'll bet it was (is) delicious.
YUM.I have one in the fridge..Can't wait.
Did yu feel that you should eat it after it smiled at you? I grew a pimpkin vine, it had 2 pumpkins. i gave one to a friend. The other I kept just to make me happy because I don't eat pumpkins. Not long after, it started to rot. What a waste.
Send me a piece....with salt on it. :) I've had as many good watermelons this year as I had in the previous 10 years. Hope all is well with you.
Mouthwateringly delicious!Mary made me crave a peach and now you made my mouth water too!
What a beautiful delicious gift from the Sacred Earth Mother.
Peace.
Love your last shot. I looks very friendly and fresh :)
