Mmm-Mmm Monday: Wacky Watermelon

Did you know that August 3rd was National Watermelon Day?  I guess I missed the "watermelon boat" on that one this year!!  But designated day or not, we are always watermelon fiends at my house, and we eat it several times a week during the summer. 



One summer day I thought, let's get a little wacky with it and cut some up with cookie cutters.  Let me tell you, it is so much faster to make watermelon cookies than sugar cookies, there is a lot less mess, and it is still super fun for the kiddos!  Here's what we tried this time....



While we were eating, one of my kids said, "Hey, Mom, these are really cool.  You should put them on your blog!"  Children don't miss much, do they?

That IS a cute idea! Isn't funny how are kids are into our blogs like that? My son is known around here for yelling, "Hey, Mommmm! You got a new email from someone."
Bless their hearts.

What a great idea! I'm sure it helps keep down the messiness of eating the watermelon too! Thanks for sharing!
