T...Hi Tracey, hope you are having a great weekend! The temperatures are very HOT and humid here. We've had such a cool summer and then all of a sudden the heat hits us. What a timely list you have. I love eating outside, it seems like a picnic everytime. It's just so nice to be out in the 'elements', breeze blowing, sunshine, hearing the birds chirping. We have alot of cold salads, potato, pasta and such, cold meat, watermelon and cantaloupe are a favourite here for dessert. The good thing about these too is they are all great snacks and the fridge door always seems to be swinging open in the summer. Enjoy your day!
