Well, I was surfing Amazon the other day in search of this month\u2019s watermelon-related prize and I came across a watermelon shark fruit server that was not only awesome, but it also looked remarkably similar to my watermelon shark carving.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t believe me?

Or is the ceramic shark on the left and mine\u2019s on the right? I honestly can\u2019t tell, but I have a gut feeling that someone saw my awesome watermelon shark and said, \u201cHey, we have to turn that incredible work of art into an adorable fruit server!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alright, so maybe that\u2019s not what happened, and maybe the ceramic shark really is the one on the left, but it could have happened, right? Of course, they could have also seen the watermelon shark carving on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.watermelon.org\/Carvings\/Shark-30.aspx\">National Watermelon Promotion Board website<\/a>, which is where I got my inspiration.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, I\u2019m giving away the ceramic watermelon shark as this month\u2019s prize. I should clarify that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Watermelon-Shark-Decorative-Summer-Server\/dp\/B00JX7NXW8\">Amazon description of the shark<\/a> says it\u2019s made of ceramic, but other descriptions more specifically describe it as being made from Dolomite. I have no idea what Dolomite is and how it\u2019s different from other kitchenware materials. If someone can explain it to me, please feel free to leave a comment.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll choose one comment from all the comments left on the blog this month to win this toothy prize. Good luck!<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>UP NEXT: A recipe for watermelon ice cream cones<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember a few years ago when I carved a watermelon shark?
