The other week my CSA came with a deliciously ripe Watermelon. I don’t usually eat very much fruit, except for the occasional berry, but the watermelon was perfectly ripe and was just begging to be used. The good thing about in-season fruit is that you don’t have to add any sweetener to it…it’s already sweet enough. Nature’s dessert! I hope you enjoy the seasonal watermelon and the last bits of summer. 🙂
