Hot Enough To Fry An Egg

I had a swim on the agenda today, but there were three reasons why I didn’t want to swim:

1) The walk home post-shower would mean re-sweating myself

2) I didn’t want to drive my car

3) I was feeling just a bit sore from my lifting yesterday and not very energetic in general

So a walk to the city market sounded much more appealing – even in the 100* heat! What!?

2012-07-07 11.59.17

Of course I chose the shadiest route there, hugging the buildings. In the shade with a hat, sunglasses and ice water in my hand, it wasn’t all that bad. It’s just the stretches of sun that are terrible! My pregnant belly button got a not-so-lovely bullseye.

2012-07-07 11.20.33

I met Matt there and we shopped around for a bit. Sipped on some ice cold lemonade/passion tea mix.

It’s sweet Ellen’s last day before she moves to Northern Va : ( We will miss her lots!

2012-07-07 11.21.12

Back at home I kissed the door of my house with it’s AC on (although I am terrified of our electric bill this month…) I sprinted out to the garden and back for some greens before taking a cold shower.

This is my favorite lunchtime salad: greens, tomatoes (homegrown!), sharp white cheddar, olive oil, honey, sea salt, an egg and a slice of bread.

With lemonade water!

    Egg on greens with toast is my dream brunch! Looks like Saturday perfection to me! 🙂

    The summer heat makes me crave fried eggs. I don’t know why…perhaps because it’s hot enough to fry one outside? 🙂

    You’re in baby’s room! Only 97* in TX. Still can’t believe the weather everyone is having, and ours is mild in comparison!!!

    If I put a pan with an uncooked egg in it out on our driveway around noon today, the sun would surely have cooked it! I cannot believe the weather we are having! But like I always say, I am not one to complain about the heat being that we do not see the sun for many months out of the year.

    Our gas bill was actually really low last month. We keep our air conditioning at 74 degrees, which sometimes I turn it down to 73 from time-to-time.

    I love the HEAT! Our area has been having pretty hot temps but I can’t say that I would mind 100 degree readings too much…I’d much rather be hot than cold!

    It is so hot in Wisconsin too! A trip to the farmers market was the only thing that got me out of the air conditioning today!

    Your lunch looks so good and refreshing!

    Seriously — this heat is so STICKY! I’m road tripping back home and I’m pretty sure we’re headed back into another storm. We’re so lucky. And you’re totally taking pics in the baby’s roo
    — it’s such an awesome chill spot. Ps I love spray painting things (ie a few posts ago) and teal. Can’t wait to see how the bookshelf comes out! xoxo and much love to you, Matt, and Karen.

    Ugggg, it’s super hot by me, too. I believe 100 degrees! I had plans for going on a run at 6 am this morning to avoid the heat, but that actually didn’t end up happening since I pulled a muscle in my leg 2 days ago and figured I was better off skipping the run to avoid injuring myself more. Probably good that I got to stay out of the heat (and sleep longer), though!

    this sounds perfect: greens, tomatoes (homegrown!), sharp white cheddar, olive oil, honey — yes, I want that salad right now!

    You often mention a salad dressing with olive oil, honey, and salt. Do you whisk them all together and then drizzle? And what proportions? It sounds simple and tasty…

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      July 7, 2012 at 3:56 pm

      I just drizzle them on individually. Maybe 1 tsp or 1/2 a tsp of each.

    That egg looks so incredibly perfect right now. You’ve got me craving one now!

    I hit the market too today…although ours is not a walk away! Picked up some local corn…my boys and nephews will love the first of the season corn! Experiencing high winds too cool off with…windows are all open…loving the fresh breeze again! Salad looks perfect!

    Don’t even get me started on our electric bill! I’ve had months where it’s been over $150 and that was when we were in a tiny apartment – gotta love FL!

    Good thing you found ways to beat the heat! I’m on the west coast now but my friends back home (also VA) keep telling me how steamy it’s been!

    All your food always looks so delicious.
    I know what you mean about walking home from swimming, after a shower, in the heat. I always need another shower by the time I get home.
