It was record-breaking hot last week here in Vancouver - 37 °C in the afternoon in late May. It just reminded me of the weather in Florida. Everything is so dry. My whole skin, everything was dried out.
Even my appetite was dried out too. Both me and my husband were just too hot to eat! Gotta made something summery to stimulate appetite.
