re: It's That Time of Year Again

If you have a cooler, you could bring salads and fruits, pretty easily. Also, greens mixed with fruits like strawberries, melons and pecans or walnuts, with a vinaigrette make a nice lunch. You can throw in some grilled chicken, if you like.

Cold soups can be very satisfying during hot months. Gazpachos, melon based soups and other pureed vegetable soups are good cold soups.
