i used to believe when I saw a Pregnant Lady, that she must have eaten a watermelon, and the seed grew a watermelon in her tummy.... I remember sitting next a "ready to pop, lady" hoping she'd bring that huge melen to the next church picnic!!! (she had triplets 10 days later.....I was disappointed).
