It is still hot here though not as hot as it was this time yesterday. I left the AC on all night because when I got up to check the temp at about 2am it was still 81.

My goal this weekend was all cold food: Saturday I made a chilled cucumber and tomato soup, and last night was a BLT salad with avocado dressing from the newspaper. The soup is good (I added croutons), but the yogurt base makes it pretty rich. It'd be good next to some cold roast chicken. The avocado dressing was surprisingly bland, but it might be better today after sitting in the fridge overnight.
