Well I just had a peek after one and a half hours and I think it needs more so I plunked it back in the oven for a bit.

Perhaps there was a reason for suggesting that the watermelon be cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes.

You can see what mine looked like here.   It definitely cooks down once you take the lid off.  

 I’m hoping for the same result. I have my fingers crossed. Thanks for sharing I don’t think I saw your treatment of it before. Too bad I might’ve done a better job!

Lunch was just a piece of toasted rye bread with some sliced leftover steak and lots of horseradish. I’m just being prepared in the event that I am DCD tonight. Designated Cocktail Drinker if Kery doesn’t like her cocktail.  Two cocktails on an empty stomach and I am a danger to humankind.

Send some of that rain down our way!

 

Here in Thornhill we have somehow dodged every rain shower in the past week, even with these 40 degree (w/ humidex) days.

Beautiful sky, you'd have to drag me out of that water every night. Have you been in?

Agreed - I would be in for a dip daily and nightly!

 

Sunsets are indeed a special thing.  One of the very few things I miss from living at our loft at Yonge and Sheppard on the 20th floor facing North / East / West - the most unreal sunsets.

Not to me.  Look much closer to the shore.

 The devil made me do it!   Instant noodles with spam and sugar snap peas. Do I at least get the points for the peas?

Picnic Island is the one with the ruins on it. The submarine is the dock - water is really, really high!
