Sunny Greetings from Central Valley of California to my fellow Californian, Thomas Richmond! It was so sweet of you to drop by and brought me such a cool plate of watermelon slices. You wrote:"I ran out of watermelon again JoAnne, now im addicted to them lol." Watermelons are so good to be addicted to, my friend. According to Chef
Harry at the National Watermelon Promotion Board. “It’s delicious and you can eat as much of it as you’d like.” With 92
percent water, watermelon is a natural hydrator and nutrient dense food
containing vitamins A, B6 and C, as well as fiber and potassium. Watermelon is
the leader among fresh fruits and vegetables as a source of the
health-promoting antioxidant lycopene, which gives the color to red varieties
o watermelon. Watermelon also contains the medically important amino acids
citrulline and arginine, which help maintain cardiovascular health. I like watermelons because they just sooooo cool and delicious. Whenever you're out of watermelons, just let me know. I'll make sure that you have a good supply.
I hope you'll enjoy these. (Photo courtesy of National Watermelon Promotion Board)
