Comments (3)Would love to try this recipe. Had great reviews! Watermelon salad 3/4 cup halved, thinly sliced red onion 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice 1 1/2 quarts seeded, cubed watermelon 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese 1/2 cup pitted black olive halves 1 cup chopped fresh mint 2 tablespoons olive oil DIRECTIONS Place the onion slices in a small bowl with the lime juice. The acid of the lime will mellow the flavor of the raw onion. Let stand for 10 minutes. In a large bowl, combine the watermelon cubes, feta cheese, black olives, onions with the lime juice, and mint. Drizzle olive oil over it all, and toss to blend. Dig in and be prepared for a pleasant surprise...See MoreI'll share my recipes, if you share yours, Friday, July 20

I took these blurry drive-by pictures last night. Random rainy night, so a few less people.

Every year West Chester does a Christmas parade. It's this Friday evening, and I still have yet to get there. ...one year...

This is how a local nursery used to decorate for Christmas in my little village of Ivy VA. Sadly the dragonfly and blue night sky no longer exist but that moon still rises in December.
