Stobist Boot Camp II Assignment 2

For years I have referred to technology in casual conversations with my peers as "Amish Porn", as electronic blinky things are forbidden by that particular community.
David has served up, to turn a phrase, what I would like to think of as "Dietitian Porn" for the second assignment within the Strobist Boot Camp II exercise for this summer.
I get to play around with two of my favorite things, cameras and food to enter this one, and my idea hamster has been spinning the wheel for a couple days now trying to figure out exactly what I should shoot.
Of course, my first instinct roars in my belly, literally, a single word that carries so much passion, so much love that it is almost deafening, "Pizza". However, because it's summer, and I'm coming off a week of holidays with my kids, I think I'm going to do something a wee bit more emotional.
For the sake of nostalgia, I'm going to find, and shoot one of my favorite treats from childhood, something that I still enjoy as an adult, but was a really big deal when it hit a the table when I was growing up; Watermelon. I used to be absolutely bonkers about it as a kid, would burrow into huge slice after huge slice while my parents would bark something about leaving something for someone else. I'm also going to do it for the sake of my middle boy, who has taken up the flag of watermelon fiend and was so horribly wronged last week at dinner when the server removed his plate of 2 precious pieces when a bathroom break called him from the table, resulting in a look of pure sadness that nearly broke my heart.
So now I get to find a suitable candidate melon, one with a rich pink flesh and dark black seeds to serve two roles: model for my project and prey for my kids.
Be vewy, vewy, quiet...I'm hunting mewons.
