Welcome to Red Couch Recipes!
A friend dropped by a yellow fleshed watermelon the other day. Somehow our son Skyler came up with the idea of carving it. He said that it was a lot easier to "gut" than a normal pumpkin. Our porch is filled with lots of pumpkins just waiting to be carved. I love bringing in our carved pumpkins and just enjoying each other lit by the glow of pumpkins --- my favorite part of Halloween!
Because Skyler totalled our truck this week, he has limited transportation. He is home a lot more. Oh well, he needs to give the girls a break ;)! Tonight he made Mummies with Moldy Dressing for our Sunday dinner. I guess an car accident has some bright spots :).
Even though Zoulah is quite a traditionalist, she approves of this" Watermelon Pumpkin" and she wants to tell you thanks for dropping by Red Couch Recipes.
Joni, I assume Skyler wasn't injured. Actually a cute idea to carve the watermelon. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe carved watermelon turned out cute! An added bonus, you can eat the innards:@)
ReplyDeleteI love the picture at night. What an interesting watermelon. Yes, I agree with Lynn, much better innards than the pumpkins!
