Plum Watermelon Soup With Lemon Balm Ice Cream and Toasted Blueberry Pound
2009-08-20 16:19:00 I must start this post with shout out to my dad that has nothing to do with the recipe and story below. A couple of weeks ago, my awesome Papa took pity of my completely DYI portfolio page created a few months back and asked if I could please shop around for a professional hosting site and he'd help. After pouring over countless forums, domains, templates, I decided to go with Photobiz (and no they are not paying me to say how great they are). They're affordable and super pro. Once I had uploaded my pictures, the revamped portfolio was up and running almost overnight! Thanks dad!It never fails. Every summer here, I want to be there. I know I have been in South Carolina long enough to handle the scorching summers but I really think that unless you are born and bred here like Bill, there is a "heat acceptance gene" missing in most of us. Actually, the humidity is the bigger problem. It wilts you the minute you step out the door and it looks like I do not have the "A/C acceptance" ge...

Watermelon Viagra
2008-08-17 08:07:00 Look no further than the produce section if lust is on the shopping list. New studies show that watermelon can have the same blood flow benefits as the wildly popular erectile dysfunction drug Viagra. According to scientists, watermelon has ingredients that deliver Viagra-like effects to the body’s blood vessels, and may even increase libido.Watermelon contains an ingredient called citrulline. Citrulline reacts with enzymes to trigger the body's release of a chemical called arginine. The result of increased arginine levels is relaxed blood vessels, scientists at Texas A&M say the effect is similar Viagra. While citrulline is found in all parts of the watermelon, the rind is 60 percent richer in the ingredient. And even higher doses are found in yellow-fleshed watermelons.Arginine is an amino acid that has beneficial effects on the heart and circulation system, and maintains a good immune system. Arginine also boosts nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, the same basic ef...

Friday Flash..Watermelon KitKats
2008-07-25 02:13:00 Another addition to the KitKat range I spied in a local supermarket.Again its a limited edition i.e only available for a short time.The packet comes with the suggestion that you put the mini bars in the freezer.Not a bad idea considering the last week the temperature has hovered in the low to mid 30 degree celsius range.As to the contents,the bars do indeed taste of watermelon.As well,they are a little salty as indicated on the packet.Not sure if I would buy them regularly if they were available year round but they do make for an unusual summer treat.

Watermelon Petit Fours
2008-05-26 16:39:00 pasticcino/petit fourI am currently experiencing the slow process of getting the wait staff to sell my desserts and have a crowd, primarily at the restaurant for socializing and drinking, to buy the tasty treats. Happily, two of the servers are kicking butt, using the display pedestal to wow their customers, and get that taking this time will increase their ticket and tip. By far, the two cheesecakes are the top sellers.When I went in Friday night with the plan of beginning my baking for next week, I started to get my prep together when the chef nonchalantly comes to me and says, Hey Chris, can you put together an array of desserts for a party of 30? Ahhhh - ok!30 kids, Chris! Ahhhh - ok!A baseball team of 13-year olds were coming in for some celebration. Kids....hmmmmm. At this point, I didn't have 30 of anything so I put together a random sampler of what I had left. I also made a quick batch of chocolate chip cookies with mixed nuts, thinking if all else fails, the boys will eat ...

Watermelon Feta Salad
2008-05-08 00:13:00 The combination of flavors sounds very unappealling I know.But this is one of my absolute favorite warm weather salads.The sweet from the watermelon and the saltiness from the feta is really great together.I make the salad with just three ingredients but I have seen recipes that add onion (sweet or red) ,black olives,white wine vinegar,red wine vinegar and on and on.I like to keep it simple. I usually serve it with grilled chicken and a green salad.

Watermelon Vodka: How To
2008-03-29 22:29:00 As most of you readers know by now, I used to manage a bar. Nothing fancy, just a small neighborhood dump in the center of Tucson, Arizona's infamous Barrio Libre. During my time there I learned many tricks to make cheap booze taste like top shelf liquor. During this time I created the poor mans answer to those fancy over priced flavored vodkas. The following is a how to guide to creating it yourself:1. Buy the cheapest bottle of vodka you can find. The store brands work best for this. In our area we had some real rot gut called Fleishmans. You can easily get something similar for less than $8 a liter.2. Go to Wal-Mart hell and purchase for about $2 a cheap clear glass sun tea jar. Take note, the glass must be clear. It must have a tight top, and a little spigot at the bottom to pour.3. Buy a watermelon. Fresh. From one of your local migrant worker stands along the hi-way.4. Slice up the watermelon and fill the jar with it. Stuff as much watermelon in that sucker as possible. Do NO...

Watermelon Production Guide
2008-02-09 09:45:00 Have you seen a square watermelon? look at the picture on the left side. I’m not kidding. This watermelon is being sold in Japan for around 10,000 yen ($83) while regular oval watermelon costs $15-$20. Quite expensive eh? here in the Philippines it won’t cost that much if you will grow it locally. There are abundant sources in the provinces but because of our poor transportation condition all of those supplies can’t reach metro manila in perfect condition and most of the time it cost higher than it suppose to be. Then how about the square watermelon, are we able to make those like what they are doing now in Japan? looks like its not harder that we thought. I saw website that sell polycarbonate casing (Fig. 1 below) to mold the watermelon during the growing stage . Obviously you can’t shape it when it is already fully grown because the peel is already hard. You just have to put the fruit still attached to the vine inside the polycarbonate casing and let it gro...

6 Healthy Reasons To Eat Watermelon
2007-09-21 11:19:00 Big or small, seedless or not, red or yellow, nothing says summer like abig, juicy watermelon (or a seed-spitting contest off the deck). But thereis a lot more to this melon than water. Turns out it's packed withphytonutrients, vitamins A, C, and a good hit of potassium, plus some B6and thiamine -- everything except fat, sodium and calories. Cool.Stay healthier: Watermelon has lots of lycopene, a key plant antioxidantthat is famous for fighting heart disease and prostate cancer. Tomatoes areusually considered the lycopene all-stars, but you have to cook them in alittle oil to release it. Watermelon not only needs no cooking to unleashits lycopene but, cup for cup, it has 40 percent more than tomatoes.Get your C: A big slice of watermelon (about two cups) fills almost halfyour vitamin C quota.Fight infection: Two cups of the juicy red melon also supply nearly aquarter of your daily beta carotene, which your body uses to make vitaminA. Running low on beta c can leave you vulnerable t...

Watermelon Wine???
2007-08-24 14:44:00 I came downstairs at 4:30 a.m. and found a very unusual surprise on my kitchen counter. Our watermelon was "talking" at me. It was just fizzing and foaming from a little pinprick hole in it. I've never seen that before and we've had lots of watermelon in our house...LOL! I guess we just didn't get around to eating it fast enough (SHOCK, of all shocks) and it decided to start fermenting. It doesn't smell like anything other than really strong watermelon but I think I'll pass on giving it a try. Somehow, the fizzing and foaming turned me off to it ;-) I really hope the day doesn't get anymore unusual!
