I got a Black Diamond watermelon the other day from a Veggie stand. I
was told Black Diamonds are not available for the big box stores like
Sams, Cub, etc. I do not remember that last time I had such a flavorful
watermelon. Not even cooled in a fridge and it was so tasty.

From here on out, if it is not a Black Diamond, I won't buy it!!!
The tomatoes were excellent to. Been eating 2 of them a day for the
last 3 days. I hope mine are half as good when ready to pick.
