Things are starting to bloom like crazy in the garden. Looks like we will actually get some yummy food out of it - yay!

Its a watermelon. And its about the size of a golf ball so far.
I have never grown watermelon before, which for some reason I assumed meant that they were difficult to grow. But it turns out they are not.
There's actually a bunch of these little fellas. One slightly larger one is hiding under the sunflowers.

And a whole bunch of itsy bitsy tiny ones are just beginning to sprout. You can see the little flowers giving way to the tiny bead-sized watermelons.
Won't be long before we will actually be eating some of this stuff!

awesome! and doesn't everything taste so much better when you know that you grew it? :-)
I actually think I remember that if you limit the number of watermelons on the vine, the remaining ones will be bigger. They do look so very yummy!
