Wake up at night, mouth dry...

AZ Jim

R.I.P. With Us In Spirit Only
Go to the refer and have one or two little chunks of ice cold watermelon!! What? No chunks of watermelon in the fridge. Well, you need to plan ahead. We just cut up our first of the season and is it good....Mmmmmmm. Next time you buy your melon, cut it down into bite size pieces and put them in the fridge. You will love me for suggesting it the next time you need just a bite of something cold and delicious.
 

Try this, just cut 'em bite size...MMMMMMmmmmmmmm 2 AM.....Back to bed and dreams of things not discussed here.
 
I can't say I've ever had any in the middle of the night, but I do like to cut up my watermelon or cantaloupes in small squares and keep them in tupperwear in the fridge, easy eatin'!
 
Neither of us have a problem with waking up in the middle of the night. We both sleep the entire night through.

Well this was a suggestion for anyone who might wake up in the night. You are lucky. I slept the night through until I was probably 75 too.
 
This plan has one major flaw, you have to get out of bed and walk to the kitchen.Now, keeping a few bits of watermelon in a covered cup on the bedside table is an option.
 
If it's a cold thirst quencher your after when you wake up with the dry mouth, there is always the thermos bottle full of ice-water or other icy (non alcoholic) beverage next to your bed.
 
I am green with envy, we have the delicious seedless little round watermelons here, including cantaloupe, but they cost an arm and a leg, so its only once in a while as a treat. :)
 
The small watermelons cost $5 each here, imported from somewhere. I hope they go down in price later on in summer. Our strawberry season hasn't even started yet, but soon, soon.
