Hi Dave,

No, it's just that I don't like to eat hot and heavy when it's hot and
humid outside. Yesterday the RDU airport hit 103, saw 101 on our back
thermometer, front one said 98.  We had a sausage/bell pepper/onion fry
with mashed potatoes and lettuce with boiled bacon dressing for supper.
Sounds heavy but I didn't eat a whole lot.
