What are some signs that fall has arrived? Obviously, the calendar is a good indication. Yesterday marked the first official day of fall, which means that the greatest season of the year is officially over, and the third greatest season has begun.<\/p>\n
The temperature dropping a bit, the leaves changing colors, and long-sleeved shirts making an appearance are also good autumnal cues. For watermelon lovers, another dead giveaway that fall is upon us is the disappearance of the big cardboard bin of watermelons from your local grocery store. Or, if you\u2019re like the store in the photo above, you just fill the empty watermelon bin up with pumpkins. (Feel to leave a comment with your best caption for this photo.)<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know about you, but seeing a watermelon bin filled with pumpkins is a little painful. It\u2019s kind of like the pumpkins are saying, \u201cHa ha, watermelon! Your season is over! Why don\u2019t you go hang out in that section of the produce aisle under the bagged salad while we take over your summer apartment here at the front of the store?\u201d<\/p>\n
Of course, it\u2019s not like watermelon completely disappears in the fall and winter. Like Pumpkin pointed about above, it can still be found, but it just doesn\u2019t have the real estate it used to. Which is more than you can say for pumpkins. Have you ever seen a pumpkin in the grocery store in July? Exactly.<\/p>\n
