Do you tend to have very little appetite in the heat?

[SOteric]

I've got all kinds of things I could eat for dinner and no shortage of culinary skills. But all I had for dinner was yogurt, fruit and a small salad. And in the 96º heat, that's enough. I'm full.

1. your sig is quite appropriate for today

:P

[SOteric]

6. I had it made specially.

:7

[SarahB]

21. .

:spray:

Great sig!

:thumbsup:

[yewberry]

2. Yup.

I made a big batch of gazpacho yesterday, so we'll have some of that and maybe some hummus.

It's supposed to be cooler tomorrow--that'll be a nice change.

4. My poor cat can't wait.

He's lolligagging in the bathtub just trying to keep cool on the porcelain.

3. No, I lack appetite during hot weather...

I ate cold cuts the last several nights when it was very hot. Today, when it was much cooler, I had a hot meal. And I have air conditioning, which I know is not always the case in Seattle. And 96 is extremely hot for your neck of the woods.

[SOteric]

7. Yes...

*sob* We've been forced to drink our lattes iced!.

5. I can't eat anything warm when it is hot.

This is sandwich and salad weather. Eating anything cooked is not going to happen. And my appetite takes a serious nose dive when it warms up.

8. It's hard for me to eat when it's really hot like it is today (98 degrees).

I had an asian chicken salad for dinner (got it at the store), plus some grapes. This heat is horrid.

[Omphaloskepsis]

11. Holy crap.. It only got up to 90 degrees in Eugene today.

Yesterday we hit 99.. I didn't realize that it could fluctuate that much between our locations.

9. Watermelon is my standard diet when it's hot

I can't stomach any more than that.

[SOteric]

10. Nummy!

One of the joys of summer, - all that fresh, juicy produce!

[u4ic]

12. A friend just gave me a bucket of strawberries

from her garden. REAL strawberries. :9 :bounce:


Getting the goodies from the garden start now. :7

[DS1]

13. What the hell happened to that alert system?

It's supposed to be readable



:wtf:

[Midlodemocrat]

20. It's hysterical, that's for sure.

[datasuspect]

14. my primal lust for blood cannot be sated

[supernova]

15. Oh yeah, I eat more salads

and fresh produce in the spring and summer. I don't like to eat anything heavy or hot. It feels like it sits in my stomach like a lead weight.

[LaraMN]

16. Definitely.

I drink so much water when it's hot that there's not much room left in me for food.
I think if I lived down south I'd have to go on Ensure, to survive.

:P

[unpossibles]

17. I don't have one when it's hot

I barely eat and barely notice.

[Rabrrrrrr]

18. Yes - the hotter it is, the less I eat.

[buddhamama]

19. yes.

i eat very little when it is hot. i subsist on cheese and crackers, salad and the occasional guilty pleasure, a can of BernieOs (don't hate me :)

[Wapsie B]

22. Oh yeah.

Sometimes the only thing I want is cold water to drink if it's really hot.

[Maddy McCall]

23. I guess, living in the southern heat, I've adapted.

Instead of cooking inside, I grill or boil seafood outside. We eat lots of light meals, like grilled squash, boiled shrimp, etc. I don't even want to see fried food during the summer.

But, yeah, not nearly as much of an appetite in the summer months.

[grace0418]

24. Normally yes. But today for some reason I am ravenous.

Of course, it's cooler today. And my "aunt flo" is in town.
