Summer om nom nom noms?
Since there is a summer time drink thread I follow this up with a summer time nom thread.
ITS SUMMER. ITS WARM AND JUNK. What do you stuff into your gaping pie holes? I like watermelon. I like to eat watermelon in front of Boyfriend while moaning loudly. Boyfriend LOVES watermelon. But he's allergic to the 1% of watermelon that is actually melon. It makes his throat swell. lol more for me.

This thread has what has got to be the cruelest start in cos.com history.
Welcome back, Drawberry.

Yeah, I missed Drawberry.
I actually don't like watermelon, or most melons, for that matter. I do like Italian ice, sorbets, granitas-- any of those water-based frozen treats. Bonanza's is a century-old local spot and their ices are some of the best. But to me summer also means carnivals and fairs, and all the disgustingly fattening treats you can find there: sausage and peppers, funnel cake, corn dogs, giant pickles, cotton candy, zeppolis, candy apples, fries with that weird cheese sauce... MMMM.

Summers are tough because I never want to turn on the oven and cook anything. I have a hard time coming up with dinner menus. Any recommendations are welcome.....

They're served chilled with a warm dipping sauce. That one came with tempura but it was still somehow quite refreshing and nice mixed with the chilly noodles. But I imagine you could have just the noodles with some fresh veggies. I really like salads in the summer time too. Chicken Caesar salads are really tasty and nommy. Sushi is a big favorite of mine...which would also go nicely with the chilled soba noodles. Man I love Asian food. @Kildread Matcha and Vanilla swirl soft serve ice cream <3

I tell you what, though, I am seriously craving some sausage and peppers now. Too bad I have to re-season my cast iron pan, first.

I'll have to try soba noodles. I do pasta salad a lot and use grilled chicken in various salads (I can cook the pasta and chicken in the morning before it's too scorching). But soba would give me some variety. Chicken and egg salads are also both good. One of our favorite hot weather meals is just baguette and cheese, cold cuts and fresh fruit. But the fat, salt and low fiber bread makes it something I don't want to do too often.
What else? Gazpacho is a good summer soup. And we do grill fairly often. I have a little counter-top panini grill and we have a hibachi on the porch. Actually, I did chicken sausages tonight on the indoor one. I just hope like hell that this summer is not as miserably hot as the last one. I really hate the heat and I bitched about it CONSTANTLY.

Man, last summer was pretty gross, and I would be grateful to the universe if they didn't do that to us again.
Ooh, another thing I like in the summer are berries. BERRIES, BERRIES, BERRIES. That's the only time I can get really good ones. And grilled corn. It's a bummer we can't have grills on our patios-- there's a little Weber in the yard, but I'm not sure whether it's communal or not and we've never bothered to find out.

@Penny-Boyfriend keeps promising grilled corn on his massive grill outside. He's made some pretty bitchin' cheeseburgers and the like on it. But sometimes it's just too hot to stand over a grill and then stuff more hot into your face.
I too tire of the sammies all the time. No amount of flavor changes can change the fact that eating so many of them a week gets boring and makes me bloat.

Call me crazy, but giant one-pound turkey legs from the Glasgow Highland games in Kentucky. Covered in homemade BBQ sauce. You have to eat it like a barbarian. Totally worth looking like a caveman.
