I’ll give you the microwave for some things but it’s a poor substitute - that goes for the air fryer and instapot. I like to roast, bake and do old school stuff. Because I’m old!
With BBQ is you gotta go outside to do it. Even hubby has given up on that in summer. Fun to do in winter though.0 -
That's where the reverse reality strikes!
See... our problem is that the house overheats in the late afternoon... at which point it is cooler outside than inside unless you have air con inside. Which is where the BBQ comes in. because if it has cooled a bit outside it is nicer to be there than turning on the air con!
Of course if you have air con on all the time INSIDE is cooler... so I see where the BBQ doesn't work for you.

AC is on 24-7 from beginning of May (this year April) until mid November at least. We keep the thermostat at 78 during the day, 76 at night. Otherwise the utility bill would be even higher. It’s never really as cool as I’d like especially at night. So less cooking makes for a cooler house.1

What I find interesting is that this is supposed to be good retirement weather! doesn't the extra heat like... exhaust you?
What's wrong with moderation!!!!!

Poor pup, PAV - I've discovered with my girl and goddog how little tolerance black dogs have for heat/sun. They demand regular rests in the shade. I understand your venture into the woods!
You wouldn't catch me out walking in your temps, Yooly - do you go out much when the day is going full tilt? I'd be seeking/hiding in air conditioned spaces. Mid eighties I'll walk, not happily though - I'm crawling out of bed early on those days, trying to beat the heat. Can't believe I spent decades working in the full sun.1 -
Some of your soaring temperatures & high humidity levels would be too hard for me…here in UK it is an unseasonably mild 13 degrees C
About 32 Farenheit……
Soup & hot chocolate weather - Pouch, Jess & I are liking it, son (back from Taiwan) isn’t ☺️
Chicken soup (Shop bought, Covent Garden) with some bread & butter for supper here - was tasty & easy…..3 -
Well then... 55.4F would be closer to 13C... 32F would yer mix of ice cubes in water!
But I agree that too high or too low is a LOAD on the system and doesn't make for a happy PAV2 -
It is 88° here with a heat index of 97 °. We are having grilled barbecue chicken thighs for dinner with cheese and bacon and sauteed onions. Some of us not me, are eating those on rolls as a sandwich. Then I am also making a Smokey Ranch chopped salad kit because it was marked down to $1.45.3

I think that Nic would not thrive on 'jade's food and 'jade would think Nic's too individualized ;-)
Me... I added half a bag of riced veggies to a crave pulled chicken burrito bowl thingie!2 -
Cheerios, yogurt, strawberries and a few walnuts for crunch. Yeah - too lazy to make a real effort. Lunch was okay so…….0

I actually called an audible and had two pieces of breakfast ham, 1 egg and 1.5 whites fried with some shredded cheese melted on top, and an air fried hashbrown patty.1
