I think this would be the sweetest way to end a family picnic...with a watermelon carved to show you care.
Have you ever tried to create a piece of art on your watermelons? I never have, and it's unlikely that I could ever carve anything this intricate, but I might enjoy trying my hand at something a little less elaborate. I promise that if I ever do, I'll be sure to take lots of pictures to share with you.
Have a great weekend, and don't forget to stop to enjoy the watermelons!
