Yes, Serena, I did rather think that with where you live you can have a picnic whenever you want! I hope next week's challenge does not scare anyone off as Alexandra is afraid it might! :-) it should be very interesting comparing people's work.

Anyway, as you'll note, I don't eat any of them - they fall in that little category of 'foods I dislike because we never had them as kids in England' - my list includes peanut butter, cinnamon hearts, okra, and yes watermelon!<br />Your Fourth sounded like a lot of fun. . . . . .we had a huge bowl of Washington State cherries on the tale too - they are delicious!<br /><br />Looking forward to the surprise theme coming up! <br />Mary -Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-36736983133069790492017-07-05T04:18:24.645-07:002017-07-05T04:18:24.645-07:00I love the graphic design aspect of your watermelo...I love the graphic design aspect of your watermelon piece, Michael! We are in our winter here but picnics are still doable being we are in the sub-tropics. I'm very intrigued about next week's challenge and also excited about another giveaway...YES! <br /><br />I'm only just catching up on my blog's comments from last week and I'm more than happy for you to forward my note re. my parents' time in Malaya on to your older sister. She may be able to shed a little more light on the dates, etc. I agree, it's possible they did cross paths at some point. <br /><br />Have a lovely week, Michael! :)Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-35884993622988926992017-07-05T04:12:59.790-07:002017-07-05T04:12:59.790-07:00Your summery sunny watermelon entry today is refre...Your summery sunny watermelon entry today is refreshing and so happy!
