This day couldn't have come at a better time. It's approximately 350 degrees right now (it's not heat, it's the humidity, etc). Not that I have to have some organization tell me when I can and can't eat watermelon, but it's nice to have a little nudge in the right direction.
Clever piece today at The Onion AV Club, The Hater's Guide To Summer. It's sort of a quick list of things to do this summer, aimed towards people who hate the season (like me!).

The ones that make us hot or are too difficult to prepare during the hot days or meals that will have the oven on all day. Sort of like winter, when our ice cream consumption goes down.Continue reading Slashfood Ate (8): Foods I stop eating during the summer
