Summer has arrived!! The temperatures have been soaring, yesterday was 35.8C.
As the temperatures rise so do tempers! The kids are on holiday and they are bikering everyday. I want the two older ones to get on and do their homework but it is to hot to think......good excuse!
The next problem is what to cook. I don't want to stand in the kitchen and prepare food in this heat. The Japanese love cold noodles, soba, which is a buckwheat noodle and somen, which is a very fine noodle. Served with a soya sauce dipping sauce, omelet, sliced ham and cucumber. It's nice enough but once or twice a week is okay. I would live on salads, but the kids don't see it as a real meal, hubby thinks it's rabbit food and just for half a lettuce I paid
$1.
