How to Make a Watermelon Brain!


Okay, I saw this first on twitter, here. Warning: it's cool, but kinda icky. First, get a watermelon.

Cut in half lengthwise.

Shave off the green skin, leaving the white part.

Start cutting with a sharp knife.

Make brain-like folds as shown.

Mine looks kind of gruesome because the white rind was so thin that the red part showed through, making it look a bit too "bloody" for me.

But I guess it does look kind of brainlike. It creeped out my family! But they still ate it. And you know me, I had to make a mini:

Out of a radish. ^_^



Happy Halloween!!!

  2. Thanks a Lot Sheri. I had all the ingredients for my little get together tonight all ready to go. Now I have to go back to the store and get a Watermelon so I can try this one. I think the Kids will LOVE it. It's really pretty "cute" because the colors are so soft. Thanks for sharing.
