 RH>> We've been in the mid to upper 90s with heat indexes putting
 RH>> temps over 100. It's a very humid heat.
 NB>> We had that the last couple of days we were at Selkirk
 NB>> Shores... most of the time there was a nice breeze which made
 NB>> things more bearable... we were right on the shoreline of the
 NB>> east side of Lake Ontario, and in a nice patch of woods
 NB>> mostly... out in the sun it was pretty bad, though...  I heard
 NB>> that Rochester and Syracuse both had heat indexes of 110 on
 NB>> Saturday... I was thankful for that my car's A/C was working
 NB>> well for my trip home.... 

 RH> We finally cooled off to the 70s (with a front/storm) on Tuesday. Back
 RH> to the mid 80s now but not quite as humid.

We've been having more typical summer weather, with highs in high 70s to
low 80s and temps dropping into the 60s or so at night... with the
forecast for mostly more of the same... not really enough rain,
though... 
 
 RH>>> Peach ice cream is popular this time of year. (G)
 NB>>> Have you been indulging....?  
 RH>> Not in peach specifically, but ice cream in general, yes.
 NB>> Tis the right season for that, too...  I noticed in Wegmans
 NB>> when we went shopping Saturday afternoon that they've got the
 NB>> peach loaves on sale... was tempted, but this week we're
 NB>> hardly eating home at all, so it would just have gone bad on
 NB>> me... maybe this week I'll grab one... 

 RH> Sounds good to me. We're a couple of months from the Raleigh Wegman's
 RH> opening up.
 
That you are...  I did grab a loaf last week, as there weren't quite so
many on display, and it looked like that might be the end of them... the
date was far enough out that it has lasted the week... just one slice
left now, and that'll probably be eaten tomorrow...  
 
 RH>>>>> Found a place that has 30 flavors of Hershey's ice cream the
 RH>>>>> other night. (G)
 NB>>>>> On the road, or locally....?
 RH>>>> Locally. Place specialises in mac & cheese, other American
 RH>>>> cheese dishes but also has the Hershey's ice cream.
 NB>>>> Ah.  Nice place to keep in mind for the ice cream, anyway... 
 RH>>> Yes, and Hershey's is a good brand.
 NB>>> Indeed.  
 RH>> Haven't been able to get back to them as they close at 8 on
 RH>> Wednesday nights; we're usually at church until just after 8.
 NB>> So the timing just doesn't mesh... 

 RH> We made it there at about 7:59 the other night. (G)

Squeaked in just under the wire... did they serve you...?  
 
 RH>>>> i'll have to look for them next time we're in Rochester.
 NB>>>> There are plenty of them, too....    You'd need a couple of
 NB>>>> trips to try them all... 
 RH>>> Over time that might happen. (G)
 NB>>> One hopes... 
 RH>> Go once a week for a year and you might cover it? Or, twice a
 RH>> week and cover that many plus additional new items cooked up
 RH>> in that time...... 
 NB>> At least he doesn't innovate QUITE that quickly... (G)  He's
 NB>> been open now for 5 years...  he's talking about updating his
 NB>> printed menus...

 RH> Adding some of the things that had been off the menu before, available
 RH> only if you knew what to ask for?

Possibly...    He's talking about deleting some things that no one
ever asks for... although I'm not sure that there are all that many of
those... 

ttyl       neb

... If it walks out of your refrigerator, LET IT GO !!
