Summer eating

A brief post from travels this week! Who needs a lengthy read anyway when it's so hot outside, and the kitchen is like an oven even before lunch?

So come out of the kitchen and barbecue away, every night if you can. And copy the Mediterranean crowd by eating as late as possible. Children can just be fed ice cream sandwiches (joke! to the huge disappointment of the little ones).

Lots of ideas for barbecues below, and if outdoor cooking is not an option, salads that don't require much effort and next to no cooking are the answer.

Happy salad days!
