Now that would certainly be a new recipe to me.:laughing: Of course I don't worry heart healthy eating; I'm only concerned with mouth and tummy pleasing eating.:laughing:

Well, I hate to interrupt this peee-nutty discussion, but I was surprised today by how dry it is in southwest Wise County. I drove down to Poolville to look at a dozer. Between Bridgeport and Poolville along FM 920, it is so dry that hay production is 1/2 to 1/3 what it is around me in northern Wise Co. The cut fields are just dry and brown; whereas, here the cut fields have green grass growing. I was shocked to see it so dry there since that's all in the same county where I live.

And it has stayed dry around here, too.

BTW: I went to Walmart in Bowie and bought a Texas grown seedless melon today (Abracadabra Farm). It was $4. I also bought two cantaloupes for $1 each (Del Monte). They are trying to make me stop growing cantaloupes too, but mine are still the best.

Hope it's as good as the one I got for $5.98. Incidentally, I got that melon at the Hickory Creek Walmart. Since then we were in the Lewisville Sam's club and they had what looked like the same big boxes of watermelons for $5.98 each, but they were all from Mexico.

I am going to have to try one of the melons you guy's are talking about. Haven't had to much luck with their seedless.
Jim, I wonder if most of the brown you saw was cut winter grasses, I know every where I had winter grass it is browning and quick when cut. I have winter rye that got up over 2' (seed heads) with all the early rains we had. After I mow, it looks like the native grasses (same where I have coastal) seem to be short ,probably lack of full sun.

I was in our Hickory Creek Walmart this morning and they have boxes of Abracadabra Farm melons inside the store and outside in front, but they're still $5.98 here.
