Watermelon is the fruit of a plant originally from a vine of southern Africa.
According to Webster’s dictionary and Wikipedia, a fruit is the ripened ovary of a seed plant and its contents, and a watermelon is a large oblong roundish fruit. According to Webster’s dictionary a vegetable is anything made or obtained from plants. It is planted from seeds or seedlings, harvested, and then cleared from the field like other vegetables. Since watermelon is grown as a vegetable crop using vegetable production systems, watermelon is considered a vegetable.



A pearl is mostly calcium carbonate, which is susceptible to even a weak acid solution. The crystals of calcium carbonate are converted by vinegar into calcium, which dissolves in the residual water.

Split Blog Post

I haven't read tht far in the book. I'm only on page 20. So far what has happened is Jace has went looking for his older brother Christian and he ends up finding him but only with the last name of Marshall. He rings the buzzer for Christian to let him in and he says "It's Fed Ex." Jace had gained entry and when he knocks on the door, Christian looks at him and is shocked. He has his girlfriend leave when she asks if she should and she leaves. They go and eat and aft his place after the meal they both go back to Christians and he invites Jace to stay at his place and to sleep on the couch. That's as far as I've gotten in the book.

Below is a picture of the Fed Ex truck to signify the roaring truck in the background which helped Jace gain entry to his older brothers place.
