Staying Cool?

    How are you all staying cool??  

I never had air conditioning in the house until we moved down to Missouri for our retirement years. In this area it is a must, especially for health conditions. We usually have high humidity along with the heat.

  We were mid 80's F before 8 am already this morning. I set up the garden hose so I could water the perennials early mornings or early evenings after the sun goes down a bit. I may need to water twice.

  I started on a deep clean of our home this morning-we have vintage wood pieces so a good time to get out the Liquid Gold wood cleaner.

 I was really stuck in the house over the bitter cold winter, and now summer begins with severe heat and humidity-that's Mother Nature for ya-Smiles.

 Thinking of cool foods for summer -what are your favorites??




    

Here is a link to lots of summer cold salads

How about ice cream?






  A few years ago I bought a ice cream cone maker-to make me a gluten free ice cream cone-have not tried that yet-not sure why now. I think that goes on my to do list this summer.

Please stay hydrated and cool during these extreme hot temperatures
