Hot~ Hot~ Hot!!!

Yes, it is!  But it is summer, and it is nothing new! I read that in  1926 it was 108 here in NY, so the nineties we are having are cool compared to that!  And that was pre air conditioning! (Thank you inventor of central air!!)

I took these July 4th down the street at the Peconic Bay in Southampton, NY.

This kind of weather makes you want some ice cream!

Speaking of ice cream, my friend Suzy at Kitchen Bouquets is having her second annual ice cream social .

Please join in!  Last year it was lots of fun, and you don’t have to make the ice cream!

  3. That's one gorgeous sunset, Kathleen. And a very scrumptious cookie too. I don't know about this heat. Last Saturday it was 65 degrees and it's going to hit 95 this Saturday. At least the tomatoes are ripening.

  5. Gorgeous pictures Kathleen and that ice cream looks oh, so good! I always wonder about those brave pioneers who came west to find HOT and HUMID weather in Nebraska...no gentle ocean breezes just high, hot winds and no air conditioned relief. They were made of sturdier stuff than me :)

    Blessings!

  25. The sky looks amazing in these shots. I would love to join he ice cream social but I do not have my ice creamer maker with me. Since I am packing up now I did not want to bring it down and have yet another appliance to pack. Call me lazy:-) I usually make blueberry cream cheese ice cream this time of the year from David Lebowitz ice cream book. Heavenly!
