I never understood why people loved watermelon so much, until I met my husband’s family. Before we were married, I went out to meet his siblings and his parents, and I realized that they absolutely loved watermelon. Not only is it because one watermelon fed a whole bunch of kids and it was sweet, but it kind of brought the family together. It wasn’t just a watery fruit as I grew up believing.

It is something that everyone loves. When you cut it open and into slices, everyone can grab a piece and take part in it. It is a love that can be shared with everyone that takes a piece. It’s watermelon love.
