I, the busy body I am, have always had mixed feelings about the summer as I loved the vacations, the tanning, and leisure lifestyle, but then the serious side of me kicks in and I miss the routine of the school days, the friends, and the sports. I even miss the turning of textbook pages as the leaves outside turn colors themselves and flutter to the sidewalks by a cool October breeze.
Yet despite all of these mixed feelings, do you know what I love the most about summer? Watermelon! haha :) Yep, there's nothing like a biting into a cool, crisp slice and feel the juice run in little rivers down your arms, dripping onto your bare, dirty feet (at least mine always are). If summer were to be summed up in a taste it would definitely be watermelon. I mean think about it when else do you have that taste? At our house we will all sit out on the front porch and have contests to see who can spit the seeds the furthest, but I must admit that it usually turns into spitting them at each other until someone gets one in their eye and Mom tells us to stop. Sigh.
