Some people find love on a two-way street, Jesus in a grilled cheese sandwich and Lucy in the sky with diamonds, but Madfish Wharf neighbor, Violet Gray, finds love in watermelons. This is the first watermelon she cut into and found a clearly visible heart on the inside. She has since bought two more watermelons and found the same thing, although multiples of hearts in those. She bought the lovely watermelons at Stop & Shop, and would love to know if others have found hearts in their watermelons. Violet is a really sweet woman who really loves watermelon, so I think the hearts were for her alone, but it would be interesting to know if other have had similar heartfelt watermelon experiences. These particular watermelons were grown in the US and are from Gibson Farms. If you’ve found a heart in your watermelon, we’d love to hear about it.

About E.J.
Artist, researcher, spiritual traveler of this fascinating orb we inhabit, lover of life and all it has to offer.
Hi everyone out there in GMG land. My name is Ellen “E.J.” Lefavour (a/k/a “Ejay Khan” – the pseudonym I used during my years as a political activist artist). I am a newcomer to Cape Ann, and thrilled to be a new contributor to Good Morning Gloucester. I am a painter and photographer who has lived and worked as an artist for 20 years, since leaving the corporate world in 1990 to pursue my passion. My contributions to GMG will consist of images (either my paintings, photographs, or the occasional video) and a little history about the image, called “Did you Know?” I hope to come up with tidbits of information that people don’t already know, or had forgotten they knew. As I am new here, everything is new and fascinating to me, especially the amazing history, so bear with me if I post something that is common knowledge – I’ll eventually come up with something that’s new to you. Please take a minute to comment on my posts, like them or not, especially if you have corrections or something to add, as that is how I, and all of us, learn. Have a Good Morning Gloucester, and a blessed day.

well, this ought to increase sales of Stop & Shop’s watermelons!
If they taste good, and they have hearts in them – its a no brainer – Stop & Shop watermelons are a must. Of course, if someone find a heart in a watermelon they bought at Market Basket or Shaws, they should say so. Maybe Stop & Shop hasn’t cornered the market on heart watermelons.
ASK JOEY WHAT HE SEE’S! I’M SURE IT’S NOT A HEART! LOL! what do you see joey? lol
I see a big mouth.
I took a similar picture over two years ago. I think the watermelon was possibly from Stop and Shop down Beverly way where I was living then. I don’t know if I can figure out how to attach a pic here, but I have one in case anyone is interested! Now is the time of the heart. We are moving into living more in hearts than in our heads. It’s definitely a grassroots movement, slow but sure……Here is to more love in the world! You gotta take it where you can find it.
Rebecca, if you want ot email it to me at khanstudio@comcast.net, I’ll put it up. Maybe we can get a watermelon love movement going. I agree, this is the time of the heart – love. If we could all live in that state, what a wonderful world this would be. I think that’s what makes Cape Ann such an amazing place – a larger percentage of the population here does live in that state of being than in other places I’ve been. We just need to spread it around the world, and GMG is doing just that.
