What???

I said something today that until this point in life, I never even imagined I would say. "A 37 pound watermelon really puts a cramp in my refrigerator organization." What?? That was not a typo- I have a 37 pound watermelon in my fridge. It is so big that I had to remove a shelf to make it fit. It weighs as much as my 4-year old son does. Husband said it wasn't even the largest one at the Farmer's Market, either.

This may be shedding a little bit of light onto a few things about me, but I am truly amazed by this watermelon. It's a melon... as heavy as my son. Not only is it big and heavy, but it is a yellow- flesh watermelon. When we cut it open tomorrow for Son's birthday, it won't be the normal pinky-red juicy thing that we cut into... it will be yellow. And it will still weigh just as much as the Birthday Boy.

I am so amazed by this particular fruit, I think I will take pics and post them here, just so you can be amazed too. Because it's a piece of fruit, and it weighs as much as my kid.
