watermelon

Believe me when I tell you, this may just be your new go-to!

These watermelon carvings showed up at a backyard party that I was at last weekend, and got lots of high five and comments. And they didn't come from Pinterest. Here's how you can create them too.

Texas knows how to throw a festival that centers on food! We've got the Tomato Fest in Jacksonville, the Blueberry Festival in Nacogdoches, and this weekend it's all about watermelon in Center. If you don't mind the hour's drive, you'll be able to sample some watermelon, hear live music, ride carnival rides, and benefit a bunch of East Texas non-profits.

It sounds like a joke or something out of a cartoon -- a train hits a truck full of watermelons.
