This is my second blog post for today but I need to share this one!
It is summer here & if you live in Australia, I don’t need to tell you that because I am sure that you are feeling it right now.
This is the temperature in my house right now…
35.5 degrees Celsius is the equivalent to 95.9 Fahrenheit.
So it is pretty hot in my little house right now. Some of you may say “Turn the aircon on!” but we don’t have air-conditioning. It is a choice we made that we did not want the added expense on our electricity bill.
We do however find other ways to keep cool.
This is one way that we keep hydrated.
In the morning, I slice up a lemon (you could use any citrus fruit for this), place it in a jug & fill with water.
Each time I pour a glass, I top the jug back up with cold water.
It is a lot more tastier than plain water & satisfies a thirst more than soft drinks or cordial.
It also has no added sugar, preservatives or nasties that you find in bottled drinks.
I am too in QLD I don't know how you are doing it without air con at the moment!!! You are on tough lady! But that drink does look refreshingly cool, I just thank the stars I work in air con. I believe we have a few more days of this before the change comes.
