It is in the 100s again today. Late August and September are the hottest months here in Northern California and it is the time of summer that no one looks forward to.

We are not going to be heating up the kitchen in these temperatures so poor John is outside cooking over a hot grill in this awful weather. According to this week’s menu I am supposed to be making Caesar salad with croutons but since we still have leftover Texas caviar and tabbouleh I am taking the easy route and serving them. I have added a little serrano chile to the Texas caviar since John thinks it is to mild.
