I'm the exact opposite. Once it hits 80s,I refuse to turn on the oven-AC or no. If it can't be grilled or made stovetop, chances are it won't happen. 

I won't be making bread over the next few days, or roasting.  But it won't stop me from making foods that some consider "winter" foods.

I love a hot soup even on a really hot day.

Forgot to post the egg salad sandwich I made for Moe the other morning when I baked the focaccia.

A couple of days ago, I grabbed what turned out to be some fantastic blackberries from one of the local Farmers' Markets. A neighbor gave me a box of corn flakes, and for some reason, there was a half gallon of 1% milk in the fridge. So, that, plus a cup of Ethiopian coffee, was breakfast today.

 

The blackberries were the highlight of the meal. The coffee didn't turn out to be as good as usual, and I was reminded why I don't buy corn flakes. So, I plucked out the berries from the flakes, enjoyed them with corn-flake infused milk, and relegated the remainder of the flakes to the compost bin.

I thought you focaccia was sticking out it's tongue and taunting me then realized it was the tomato!   

[Steve Irby]

A simple breakfast of very good seasonal fruit served over yogurt and granola with a drizzle of local honey.   The coffee is a flat white made with Sweet Maria's Espresso Monkey Blend.

Bagel and "lox."  Half the bagel with cream cheese, half with avocado.  The tomato is an heirloom, purchased in a two-pack from Trader Joe's, and not bad.

If you need a second husband I'll happily become non-monogamous. Every time I see those pics I get hungry 😁

That looks fabulous. My husband would love that - I am not at all interested in food of any kind until about 11:00 am, at which time, I usually have yogurt and fruit and nuts or ryee toast with peanut butter or sometimes leftovers

Farmers' Market organic blackberries, organic, full-fat Greek yogurt, Ethiopian coffee.  I can't recall the last time I had full-fat yogurt, much less Greek yogurt, and this was such a treat. Creamy and smooth, and defintely more flavorful than the 2% I usually get.😍

Thanks MaryIsobel.  Like you, I don't want to eat early. Not a big fan of breakfast.   So on days that i work, I usually take the same thing for lunch and eat around 11:00.

 

Father's Day breakfast.

 

Made a ramen and a green chicken curry made with coconut milk.

 

I'm taking the same for lunch.

I made this Spring Onion Tart with Chèvre, Dill & Black Pepper from Sunlight & Breadcrumbs by Renee Erickson the other day.  I added mushrooms and a few asparagus stalks.

It’s been breakfast (and the occasional lunch) since.

Scrambled smoky duck eggs on sourdough from Ottolenghi's Plenty

 

This recipe calls for dried chipotle peppers, soaked and roughly torn, green onions, garlic, tomatoes to be sautéed first, then scrambled along with the duck eggs, spooned over toasted sourdough and garnished with cilantro. Sour cream is to be served alongside but I subbed Greek yogurt. 
 

Not bad but I think dried chipotles are better used in either a spice blend or in a longer cooked dish like beans or a stew.  I’d prefer a chipotle in adobo here.

Boozy mushrooms on toast from Diana Henry’s Simple, a favorite of mine - the book and the mushrooms!
