QUOTABLE WATERMELON: A REFRESHING BALANCING ACT

The quote in today’s entry has been written in many different ways with many different types of food. Today’s rendition uses chocolate, but I’ve seen it written with ice cream and even beer. Most of the time, the quote includes some sort of indulgent food, which is what makes the “balanced diet” … [Read more...]

NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION UPDATE: THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

Only nine more days until my watermelon-eating contest debut at the Bel Air 4th of July Festival in Bel Air, Maryland. My journey to this point started with the declaration of a New Year’s resolution (to compete in a watermelon eating contest), which led to a search for a contest in my general … [Read more...]

LET THE CARVING BEGIN: THE 2014 WATERMELON CARVING CONTEST IS HERE!

It’s that time of the year. Time to sharpen your knives, break out the big cutting board, and slice up some watermelon. No, I’m not talking about cutting up some watermelon for a picnic (although you should do that, too) — I’m talking about the Fifth Annual Watermelon Carving Contest. It’ll be … [Read more...]

RECIPE: WATERMELON MINT LEMONADE COCKTAIL

Nothing says summer like outdoor parties. That includes good food, good music, good friends and, of course, good drinks. I like all four (usually with an emphasis on good food), but, during a cookout last week, I decided to pay a little extra attention to the good drinks. So, I grabbed some of … [Read more...]

HOW HYDRATED ARE YOU?

You can’t spell “watermelon” without “water.” You can’t create a watermelon without water, either. At 92 percent water, watermelon boasts a refreshingly high water content, and it’s also rich in vitamins and antioxidants, making it a natural power drink. From daily adequate intake to replenishing … [Read more...]

HOW TO CARVE: A WATERMELON VASE

My carvings in the past have ranged from the very simple to the somewhat challenging. This month’s attempt is somewhere near the simple end of the scale. In fact, I’d venture to say it’s probably my easiest carving to date. And, while it may be a cinch to create, it’s also arguably my most … [Read more...]

MAY PRIZE: CHILI’S WATERMELON DRINKS

You know it’s officially “watermelon season” when restaurants start rolling out watermelon-themed food and drink specials. You can find watermelon on many menus (some all year long, if you’re lucky), but Chili’s is taking the season to new, tastier level with its line of watermelon-themed … [Read more...]

RECIPE: WATERMELON BARBEQUE SAUCE

May is National Barbeque Month, which makes sense because May also includes Memorial Day which, in my opinion, is the unofficial start of summer and grillin’ season. Of course, I don’t need good weather or a national holiday to convince me to fire up my grill. Even though I live in Pennsylvania, … [Read more...]

MY DINNER AT CHILI’S (AND SAMPLING THE CHILI’S WATERMELON DRINK MENU)

Earlier this month, I wrote about Chili’s new watermelon drink specials and this month’s blog prize, a $50 Chili’s gift card (leave a comment on any May blog entry to be entered to win it!). As The Watermelon Guy, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to try these drinks before they disappear from … [Read more...]

CAPTION THIS PHOTO: OH BABY!

I stumbled onto this image the other day and it made me chuckle, so I figured I’d share it here on the watermelon blog. It’s either a great Photoshop effort or the world’s strongest baby. While there’s a 99 percent chance that it’s just clever photo editing, I prefer to believe that it’s … [Read more...]
