RECIPE: WATERMELON CAKE

The great thing about this recipe is that it uses pieces of watermelon in the cake and  watermelon juice in the frosting. And it also looks like watermelon when it’s sliced and served. The original recipe called for red food coloring in the frosting to make it red, which I guess works for the top … [Read more...]

FEATURED PHOTO AND PET: BEAUTIFUL WEDGES AND ROMEO THE DOG

I’m no competitive eater, mind you, I’m just not one to back down from a challenge, no matter how sick … [Read more...]

FEATURED PRODUCT AND JULY PRIZE: THE WATERMELON CANDLE

Behold the watermelon candle. I actually smelled this candle not long ago in a store. It smelled the way I imagine a giant watermelon patch in Georgia might smell right before the harvest. Of course, watermelon patches probably don’t smell anything like this candle. They probably smell like wet dirt … [Read more...]
