Our first annual National Watermelon Carving Contest is in the books and I have to admit that it wasn\u2019t easy narrowing the field down to just four finalists. There were so many great entries to choose from and after much deliberation (and a few arguments over which carving should get the last finalist spot), I was able to come up with the four carvings you\u2019ll see here on What About Watermelon this week. On Friday, I\u2019ll open the polls for everyone to vote for their favorite.<\/p>\n

Our first finalist in the National Watermelon Carving Contest is Ronna F. of Rockville, MD. Ronna\u2019s Easter Bunny makes great use of the rind to create bunny ears. How she got the ears to stay on there is a mystery, but I\u2019m guessing she used either toothpicks or magic (but probably toothpicks).<\/p>\n
