Will Miss #47 - tiny watermelons

Posted on 00:00 by Unknown
Though I'm not happy about the price of fruit in Japan, I am happy with the fact that you can buy relatively small watermelons. My husband doesn't like them and we have no one to parcel the fruit out to. Small melons take me 4-6 days to eat by myself, so I'm pretty happy to get one.I'll miss being able to buy watermelon for one.
