I heart watermelon...not really.

I admit it.  I don't like watermelon.

What if I told you that I like watermelon-FLAVORED food?  Are we friends again?

I made you some watermelon-flavored cut-out cookies...they're so yummy and the prettiest pink color.

They're decorated up really simply, so you can whip up a batch quickly and bring them along on a summer picnic without much fuss.

I'm blogging about them over at Parade.  Come on over, grab the recipe, the tutorial...and a little more watermelon-dislike confession.  Ah, I feel so much better now.

    Those cookies are so cute! I have to admit that I'm not a huge watermelon fan either. I don't hate them, but I'd certainly never reach for watermelon over a cantaloupe or other melons!

    I am loving the colour of these cookies and thanks to you, I now know that there is such a thing as watermelon flavoured gelatin. I need to browse more in the supermarket.

    Sweet looking cookies Bridget.

    Bridget,
    My hubby agrees with you on the watermelon. I love, love, love it and could eat it till I explode. I also love watermelon flavored food, so these adorable cookies are right up my alley.

    I don't like watermelon either. I have never met someone who doesn't. I am always amazed the look people have on their faces when I say I don't like it. The cookies are really cute though.

    Saw the recipe this morning, absolutely knew they would be perfect to take to a housewarming this weekend. We haven't decorated them yet but the cookies alone are wonderful! Just the smell is mouthwatering! I can't wait to try other gelatin flavors!

    I HATE watermelon but LOVE watermelon flavored things! On the other hand, I LOVE oranges but HATE orange flavored things. I could go on and on with this list but you get the idea. These cookies are precious,I would much prefer them over actual watermelons :)

    I love watermelon, all melons, but since I was 37 I haven't been able to eat them due to developing an allergy to them (weird, I know, but turns out its a ragweed allergy).

    Anyway, I wanted to say that the cookies are beyond adorable!!! And, I do not like strawberries but I like strawberry flavored stuff. ;-)

    People always look at me so funny when i say i don't like watermelon, or really any melon. I always thought i was the only one, so glad to hear there are others.

    Watermelon flavored things are definitely ok, and these cookies are adorable!
