3 Aug

Hello! Happy Monday and more importantly, Happy Watermelon Day!!!! This is my second favorite day of the year (after Thanksgiving). I love watermelon more than anything in the world.

national watermelon day

Confession: I used to buy watermelons two at a time and eat both within five days.

In honor of this very important National Holiday…

i love you watermelon

Yesterday I took a little walk and got my favorite iced americano blended drink….

my special starbucks drink (450x800)

And stole a bite of this almond bear claw. (I’ve been really good about keeping it down with the treats but some sneak in and it’s fine. 10% is the goal while I’m doing the 24 Day Challenge.)

The rest of the day was spent cleaning and resting. Vegas helped with some moral support.

    For me watermelon is really up there!

    It tastes incredible and is hydrating and refreshing . Not to mention wayyy up there on the list of foods to balance your PH. It’s almost up there with lemons ! Watermelon sangria is now on the list so thanks for the tip!!

    Uh Oh … did Vegas have an IV or something? His left leg looks shaved. :-/
    I hope he’s ok. I bought a watermelon last week and ate it in a couple of days.
    Do you put salt on yours? My husband thinks that’s gross, but I think it makes it sweet. Who’s with me???

    Ugh, I really need to try that sangria. Is there anything better than booze and watermelon?

    My favorite food is ICE CREAM!!! I do love watermelon, but I don’t buy it that often because I think cutting it is such a pain in the neck. You make it look super easy. 🙂
