And in Japan speaking of a watermelon, ↑ This color.
At all of you, what color is the watermelon? (DONNA IRO NO SUIKA DESUKA?

 

I watched a movie "A holiday of Rome" in a childhood ,

and was surprised at the watermelon which Gregory Peck bought in a market.
Because that was very big, and without the stiripes.
Is that form common in Italy, I wonder?

Now, a lot of watermelons are sold when I go to the supermarket in Japan.
When I went for shopping a while ago, I took a photograph of the watermelon.

One is about 1,200 yen.


The small watermelon of the left is a kind called "HIMEMAKURA",and it is a rare watermelon.

It was made selective breeding in Hamamatsu.


It is popular for two or three years.
Because It doesn't occupy the refrigerator ,

and the size that is just good for a small family.

 

 

 

 

I bought a watermelon at this shop, too.
When I return to the house by car,I noticed to hang at the door of something back entrance.

In the Japanese supermarket, "a sugar content" is displayed by a watermelon.
Shop clerk measures using with a tool called "the sugar content meter"search,
It is put one the numerical value on one watermelon with a seal.

I eat sweet watermelon which I cooled with a refrigerator.
This is the most delicious in the summer.(NATSU WA KORE GA ICHIBAN OISHII DESUdeliciousgood


Today the eldest daughter entered the swimming pool(POOL NI HAITTE IMASHITA) all day in the kindergarten.
The natural sweetness of watermelon seems to be soaked into her body which was sweated, and was tired.

 

 

 

 

 

During the pregnancy,as for me, morning sickness(TSUWARI) was terrible,

and only a watermelon was edible.

I ate a half of a watermelon every day, so people around worried about me.
Therefore,  did she come to like a watermelon so much?

Shortly after reading this blog post I went to the supermarket.
And with your post in mind I noticed how they actually sell both types of watermelon - both striped and solid coloured.
My little sister asked what melon to pick, and I quickly argued that the only right colour of a watermelon is striped :)
Come to think about it, I think the most common colour of a watermelon around here (Denmark) is the striped ones. Though the solids are not that far behind.

But never the less.. striped, solid, Danish or Japanese, I love watermelon :)

Best regards,
Clement
