The mercury's breaking 90 today and it's going to be almost as warm through the weekend. Here are some tips to make the next few days a little more comfortable. Cooking can make an already hot kitchen unbearable, so check out this link to Mark Bittman's 101 recipes ready in fewer than ten minutes. Longtime readers of this blog probably recall that I've posted this link before, but there's always something on it I haven't tried, and I'm assuming the same is true of you. You should also browse this list of summer recipes from Epicurious.
All of us love a cool drink on a hot day, so check out the book, Smoothies, Shakes and Frappes: 750 Refreshing, 
Revitalizing, and Nourishing Drinks. And browse the ice cream and frozen dessert recipes at the website Food52. The Cook's Illustrated Cookbook has frozen desserts, and if you're avoiding dairy, The Vegan Scoop is worth a look.
If you would rather forget about cooking and relax in the water, the state Department of Recreation has 
the facts on local pools. There's an additional list of pools at the City of Somerville's website.
And if you're thinking about going to the beach, you'll want to take a look at the NYT's list of recommended beach reading.
Stay cool.
