The headline for SoCal News today reads: “Winds Pick Up as San Diego County Is in 2nd Day of Extreme Heat”. My immediate thought was, “Well, there goes my dinner plan.” Followed by one inevitable question I think that unites all mothers, fathers or anyone who is in-charge of the kitchen …  “What am I going to cook tonight? The original recipe was inspired by my own variation of Gazpacho that I like to make with watermelon , tomato , and cucumber during the hot summer days.
