Hello aseanhivers! I guess everyone of us felt the wwrath of the blazing heat outside that those who have the time tend to escape to some cooler location to freshen up. Well, that depends on your capacity, on how deep your pocket is, right? Anyways, before planning for a getaway, there lots of things to be considered yet especially when you have pets and no one can take care of them.
Going to the beach and take a dip
When my daughter came home for a month's vacation, we went to a nearby seaside resort to escape the city heat. We stayed for 3 days. We went island hopping for 3 hours and they see to it that I wear a safety vest for my protection because I easily get muscle cramps when my feet is underwater.
Well, it was only short while and you go home tired yet happy because family bonding seldom comes due to family responsibilities.
Enjoy the waters until sundown
Last holy week was so hot that my daughter along with her hubby and child went to the beach on that Saturday afternoon until sundown. Granny me preferred to stay inside though.
Adjust my working hours
It's back to reality once again! I often do my research online at night because it's cooler and I can focus when everyone is asleep. :) Of course, with something cold beside my lappy! I prefer lemon with honey and yakult with lots of ice cubes to quench my thirst or other variation with lesser sugar content.
More ice cubes to keep cool
My daughter would buy extra ice cubes at 7k-11 store because it's more handy since our freezer is filled with frozen foods and a tray of ice cubes is just enough for Antonia's water bottle. The school even allow them to use civilian clothes due to the heat index. She's got her own handy fan too.
Home delivery and stay inside to avoid the heat outside
I perspire all over when I do the cooking because of the heat that I often have heart palpitations. I order via Foodpanda when this happens. I make the computations and there's not much difference either and lesser effort on my part. Just like on the above photo, I ordered 2 boneless bangus (milkfish), 1 pork sisig and 1 chicken sisig. Each of our own food preference. Lol! It's just like dining out while avoiding the heat outside and the heavy traffic too.
Elders should avoid the heat outside
Antonia made us her favorite sandwich delight when there are fresh ingredients such as lettuce and cucumber from the farm added with scrambled egg sprinkled with basil.:)
Enjoy midnight snacks with Antonia's Sandwich Overload
See, staying inside and beat the heat is another remedy while enjoying our time munching Antonia's sandwich overload!
My daughter also allowed her 29 months old son to take a dip in his bathtub at the front door and play before going to sleep. Kids just love doing this!
This is my entry #105 for AseanHive Community Challenge: Beat The Heat. Thanks sir
