Juicy, messy / Treat to eat.
Dessert of summer / Picnic jewel
Ruby red / and oh..so cool !! "
Guess what........ it's about the star fruit of August, the watermelon.
There is no other fruit for hot summer days, than watermelon; full of antioxidants and vitamins, excellent hydration source, but also the inspiration for my necklace;)
"Watermelon" created especially for breastfeeding mothers, but not only ....;)
It's a baby friendly item, made with natural wood beads and cotton yarn, accessorised with flowers and a slice of watermelon;
Yummmi, cheerful, colorful and just perfect for the little ones to chew on......don't you agreed ?
Well.......I hope you enjoyed my new necklace, full of flavors and vitamins, which is my own design.....by the way; now, I invite you to enjoy some of the curiosities less known, about watermelon collected from the internet or "connoisseurs"
1. We know that it's a fruit, watermelon is actually a vegetable related with melon and cucumber.
2. We eat it as a dessert, but it's so delicious as an appetizer, with cheese or salads ...... our parents and grandparents know best;)
3. We use to eat only the core, but all parts are edible, core, shell and seeds; I recently learned from a friend from USA, who told me that they don't throw anything from watermelon and she prepared an excellent salad with watermelon shells. Also, Asians have some food recipes with watermelon shells ..... they look very yummmi
4. Shell can be used also as a snack, especially for those with blood pressure problems or obesity; the active ingredient, citrulline, improves blood circulation.
4. The seeds, full of benefits and what is more interesting, they could treat the diabet type II; however, keep attention how you eat, milled or tea, I think it's best
5. Also seeds improve libido and virility, so they are a good source of natural viagra;)
I hope I convinced you by watermelon beneffits and don't forget to appreciate of what Mother Nature gives us, for me.............................always an inspiration source.
