watermelon days

As a child, Hanuman believed the sun to be a ripe mango.

He pursued it, in order to eat it! (link)

Get yer air - right this way!

First, I didn't want to come to this one-horse town.

Now, I don't want to leave!

And I can't wait to come back.

Got a little book for CrossFit.

I do just about whatever my trainer tells me.

That's what she said!

Also got these for massage..... for my shoulder.

Up against the wall!

My massage guy showed me the technique - with golf balls.

I handed them back to him and said

"Here's your balls!" I think he gets that alot!

It's a watermelon festival of ice box proportions!

I do like me some walla-mellon every now and again.

It's one of those crossover fruits.

Some say it's actually a veggie.

Seeds on the inside, and all...

Watermelon has a higher glycemic index,

but a lower glycemic load. link

A cup of watermelon has about 11 carbs. link

This is a small watermelon.... sliced into wedges.

I had half of one wedge - maybe 2 cups?

I'm guessing 20 carbs.

I'm no purist, (my other fave line)

especially when it's over 100 degrees in the shade!

Having said that, (another good line)

I only have the stuff a couple of times a year.

I didn't buy one for myself....But if it's offered to me

I can have a little chunk. 

But not too much of a chunk - or too often

 - since I am still a little "chunky!"

Hope your Holiday weekend is a great one!

Any plans? Do tell!
