Wonderful Watermelon! In this heat, we were looking for what might be refreshing and we turned to watermelon. All by itself, it is tasty and refreshing. And it helps you stay hydrated - critically important in this weather. Our recipe this week features watermelon and cucumbers, another cooling vegetable.
