I love carved watermelons. There was always a nice one each day on display in the Horizon Court buffet.

This is even cooler!

More great salmon!

This photographer says:

"'Smoked wild sockeye salmon with condiments and brown bread' - I can't get enough of salmon on this cruise. Delicious as always."

Neither could I, and yes - oh-so-delicious~

"I made a lot of bread for Christmas, for eating and for giving to people. Besides this one, there were also a couple of pretty bread wreathes with bows that somehow got eaten while I was out shopping yesterday. That's ok. This loaf grew so large in the oven that I had to scrape it off the upper rack where it had baked through the slats....

Sweet Christmas bread recipe:

1 cup warm water
4 1/2 tsp yeast (2 packets)
1/2 cup honey
3 cups warm soy milk, or whatever
lots of flour

No instructions. You should know how to make bread, damnit. Baked at 350. Sprinkled with poppy and flax seeds over a glaze of oil and honey and soy milk. The amounts given will make three normal-sized loaves or lots of smaller ones."
