Monday Coffee Break- All about watermelon collage

Do you have your coffee cup? I do!

Last week’s Coffee Break got us to thinking about Memorial Day with our simple Memorial Day picnic on the patio and a little history about this noted holiday. So this week, as we celebrate our fallen heroes, we also welcome the official kick off of the summer vacation season.

And as everybody knows, no summer is complete without the copious consumption of sweet, red watermelon! That’s why this week’s Coffee Break sets up you to do that in fine style. There is nothing quite like getting together with family and friends just to enjoy an ice cold summer-sweet watermelon.

So let’s slow down this Monday, grab a cup and enjoy 3 easy ways you can enjoy entertaining with and serving watermelon this summer!
