Is that the right phrase? I know love can be \u201cin the air,\u201d but can spring be in the air? I can smell spring on certain days (it smells like grass, grilled meat, and a hint of manure spread on nearby cornfields), so I guess spring can be in the air.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, I was thinking of spring (and summer) when I chose this month\u2019s prize: the watermelon platter dishes pictured on the right. Placed together, the nesting dishes look like a cross section of watermelon. Individually, they each look like your own personal wedge. You can serve whatever you\u2019d like on them, of course, including watermelon. I\u2019m not sure if watermelon served on watermelon plates would be too much watermelon, but as we all know, there\u2019s no such thing as too much watermelon.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll choose one comment from all the comments posted to the blog this month to receive this prize.
