In honor of summer:
Are there any foods that you only eat when it's higher than
80 degrees out there?

For me this summer, it's Creamsicles. When it's too hot and
muggy to eat anything else, I've got room for Creamsicles. :)

(I'd say ice cream sandwiches, but I ate those all through winter, even on
that really cold day [had my first pint of Ben & Jerry's too. you can do
these things when you're indoors].)
(I can think of some things I wish I hadn't turned the oven on to cook
when it's that hot outside...)

Vegetable ke-babs....cut colorful peppers, onions, zuchinni, mushrooms,
etc. into chunks, string on to skewers, dab your favorite sauce (mine
is soy/rose'/garlic and spices mix) and grill. Put it over rice, in
a salad, whatever. Mmmmmmmm!

Whiskey slushes! It doesn't really cool you off but somehow
you don't mind so much.

Blue Bell Rainbow Pops. The only good thing Blue Bell makes. Of course,
I eat them all the time, but it is almost always above 80 out.

For me, it's watermelon. I can eat watermelon till I pop in the heat. :)

I like ice cubes. We (my family) just got an icemaker, and it was well
worth it. I just take a cup and fill it with ice cubes, and eat them.

For me, it's freshly squeezed, shake-em-up lemonade, the kind vendors sell
at the fairs and summer festivals. Wylers and Country Time can't even
come close in my book!

There aren't any hot-weather foods for me. I can think of
lots of things I won't eat in the heat, but then again once it's
really hot I don't want to do much of anything.

Heat doesn't usually bother my appetite. I *eat*. Year 'round. No problems!
I like the mental picture of a cat eating watermelon. :)

I'm with Pattie and remmers. I have been known to eat several pounds
of watermelon on hot days. ;)

On a hot summer day my favorite snack is a chocolate cone from
my local "DQ" :)

gazpacho--the real andalusian stuff like my mother-in-law makes. only
fresh vegetables (no canned tomato juice), and i serve it with ice
cubes...aaaah! and it doesn't heat up the kitchen!

By the way, I've never tasted any gazpacho as good as the one they served
at the old "Whiffletree" Restaurant (boy, do I miss that place!). I think
I have the recipe for their gazpacho around somewhere, if anyone is inter-
ested.

I'd love to see Liz's gazpacho recipe, too.
Jamie - Gazpacho is a tomato-based soup that's served cold.
