Default What do you want to eat/drink when it's hot?

I drink "Republic of Tea" Ice Tea...It's really refreshing. They have all
flavors and it is a little expensive so I just buy the bottles and save them
to drink when I feel like a cool treat. I like to make Ice Tea with Lady
Grey Tea too. I also drink lots of ice water. I also like soda. I like to
make cold salads...Like Fried Chicken or steak salad with leftovers. Tuna
Salad in a scooped out tomato is good for lunch.Tonight we had cold chicken
and Wayne had Mac Salad(I had a Tablespoon of it) and I had a nice green
salad. Luckily we have AZ...it is a must in AZ. An AC or Swamp Box. I make
strawberries with Splenda and serve them with whipped cream...or when other
berries are in season I will mix them. I heard Crystal Light Popsicles are
good...haven't tried that yet. It sure will be nice when the hot weather
gets a bit cooler. We're in for the hundreds again next week and no sign of
rain....the monsoons have seemed to go into hiding
