Wow, watermelon!


Our family has sort of a connection with watermelon. I LOVE it (and I mean with my whole heart), and my husband is from the actual Watermelon Capital of the World. I'm quite serious about this. My mom-in-law still lives there, and they celebrate this fabulous fruit every year. I can say, without a doubt, their fields grow the tastiest watermelons I've ever had. I once had some watermelon from California that was pretty close, but no cigar.

Because of this connection, and article about this yummy melon caught my attention today. Apparently, watermelon has an effect similar to Viagra. Whoah. Hey, Ms. Robbin, maybe there's a more scientific reason for why the ladies of the night show up around the watermelon festival!!!!

If you would like to read more about the benefits of watermelon, you can see the article here.

I couldn't believe it when I read that article! Of course, it also said it's good for heart problems, so that's cool!
