Whilst Rob worked on fixing up the paths in my flower garden, I moved from shady spot to shady spot.
The window seat in the morning, the hammock was good until lunch, then our bedroom for the mid-afternoon. Finally the breezeway lived up to its name in the late afternoon.
Drinking icy drinks and listening to the dogs pant, I read gardening books dreaming of some cooler weather.
We enjoyed tomatoes and basil for lunch on toast, and my home made banana ice cream hit the spot afterwards. It's still warm now, all the hut doors and windows are open allowing the cool breeze in. We're listening to the men's tennis final on the radio and eating mango sorbet.
This sort of day is ok once in a while, but I can't really do much in weather like this.

Ohh, please enjoy the heat for me!! ;-) I get the chills reading about it.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to get some bravery and master the icy outdoors here.... It's a little too cold to WANT to step outside.

The dogs are gorgeous, beautiful - love them!!!
The ice cream sounds to die for, by the way....
Oh, I hear you about the heat! Our dinosaur of an air con stopped just when we needed it most! The hot weather is just terrible but as I write this, the house is finally being cooled down by a lovely strong breeze! Hope you and the pups stay cool! x
