I like to cook but I hate cooking in the summer heat. Our kitchen tends to stay hot even when the oven is not on. Our kitchen is the most hottest room in the summer. Between the oven, stove, microwave, hot water running, washing machine, and dryer running our kitchen is like a sauna. I get sick and tired of sandwiches quickly. I am a picky eater so there are not many foods I like and enjoy. Every summer I run into the same problem. When I cook I burn up. So I try to keep a fan on me but it only helps a tiny bit. I don't make much money but every know and then I do order food. Perhaps this summer I will order food a bit more so that way I don't have to cook as much. My mother usually doesn't cook a lot in summer for the same reason. We do a lot of subs and cold food for the summer, also quick food. The problem is that there are not a lot of cold food to eat. The majority of food is hot. It's a even bigger problem for me because I don't like much food. I already made a list of foods for breakfast, lunch, and snacks for me and my sisters. I plan on making a different variety of foods. I plan on making something different everyday...that way we won't get sick of the same foods as quick. This is just one more reason I hate the summer!

I love a really nice salad in the summer with plenty of crunchy fresh vegetables , boiled egg, potato salad and cooked meat or shellfish
