Hot Days of Summer



As our summer days get progressively warmer, it is becoming more and more difficult to keep the house cool. We have been throwing open all the windows at night to let the cool air in, and then closing them in the morning to keep the warmth out...but it's not working as well now.

Needless to say, the stove will not be used during this heat wave so bruschetta is on the menu. No cooking required. Just fresh summer grown ingredients. I don't use a recipe. I just combine the following ingredients to taste.

3-4 summer ripe tomatoes
fresh basil
minced garlic (I prefer only one clove)
olive oil
balsamic vinegar
salt and pepper
crusty loaf of bread
