Before beginning, please keep in mind that my husband has thousands of excellent and remarkable qualities, more than I have yet discovered, and I would not trade him for anything. But, you must know, he does not like watermelon. It's the sad state of things when I hesitate to buy a delicious and readily available watermelon for fear it will go to waste because my ever diminishing digestive tract is currently occupied by other things, like a person - yes, a 3 lb person, but a person no less! However, when I stumbled on this recipe, there was no reason to hold back. It wasn't bad, I thought it was really good, actually, but the Man of the House, prefers less pulpy anything. I did learn that ice cubes do not belong in the food processor. Noted for future experiments. Even with all the great nutritional value, like high in Vitamins C and A, as well as Potassium, and lots of other magical qualities, he still would like something different.
A few days ago, he sent me a video of a juice recipe, which was something different. It takes nearly 10 minutes for the video to show you how to cut, blend, and explain that good juice must be strained. But if you have 10 minutes, it's an interesting view. Tonight we tried it. And it was excellent. Really excellent! We juiced one melon, which was selling for 25 cents per pound, and made nearly a gallon of juice. Now I just have to figure out how to get out the lovely red color from our 'strainer.' (Thank you to the giver of this lovely towel. It has served us very well. Hopefully you aren't offended at our multitasking its purpose.) At least I'll have some juice to quench the thirst while washing. Maybe with a little lime in it...
