Food

Yesterday we had my parents over for dinner. Manny grilled some burgers and I cut up fruit. We went to Kroger to choose fruit earlier during the day. Manny just wanted a cantaloupe, but people who know me know about the time I ate half a watermelon. Yum! Manny let me get a watermelon :-)

We were knocking on the watermelons trying to choose a good one. I found one that had a nice deep thud only to get home and discover it wasn't any good at all. It wasn't even pink!!!! I was very disappointed. I went out to Manny who was grilling on the patio to tell him that we had bought a dud watermelon. He later came inside to see the watermelon...

Apparently there are different color watermelons! Yay! I knew it tasted like watermelon, it just didn't look right. You can see in the picture where I dug out pieces of watermelon with my finger to taste test it. Haha! I was very excited it wasn't a dud.

We had a discussion later that night about picking a good watermelon. My dad does the knocking method, but my mom picks one that looks pretty. My dad said his dad would look for bug tracks because bugs know sweet watermelons.

Also, for dinner Manny picked a cantaloupe. It was perfectly ripe!

 And we had appetizers Mexican style!


My amazing husband made half pound burgers and apparently one of them was bigger than the rest. He had his eye on it, but unknowingly, I picked it. Haha oops! Hopefully he forgets about that :-)

Dinner was great! Good food and wonderful company. Parents are awesome!
