Cold food again for dinner tonight. It was 112 degrees in the parking lot when I left for the farm and I actually did a little picking. (OK, it was 15 degrees cooler at the farm, but still.)
I brought home kale, two kinds of broccoli, two kinds of radishes, lettuce, escarole, tiny amounts of parsley and basil. So we had a big ol' salad with the herbs and fresh mint from the back patio. I added some low-fat mozzarella for protein and some toasted pecans for crunch. Oh, and I picked a quart of strawberries so we had a few of those for dessert. And chocolate, of course.
The temps have now gotten down to 89 degrees upstairs. This whole misery is supposed to break tonight with some thunderstorms -- hooray! Tomorrow should still be hot, but a lot cooler than it was in that darned parking lot today.
