My mom has been carving fruit for some time now.  It is amazing the details that she can put into them.  The picture at left is a watermellon she cut for a birthday party.  I was going to show a photo of the watermellon laid horizontally but someone (kids) took a chunk out of the other side.  I guess they were hungry.  Production of a carving like this takes approximately 3 hours.  It is a full sized watermellon, purchased at the peak of summer.  She cuts a variety of other fruit into patterns as well, but watermellon is the most spectacular.  Anyone near Lancaster, PA need one of these?
