Cucumbers to the rescue


The hot insipid taste of Chennai summer is on our lips! It is laser hot right now - the sun ever so penetrating-even to the division of joints and muscles !!!Even flies (ugh!)turn lethargic this time of the year. How does one keep cool at a time like this ? Airconditioning, coolers, ice-cold beverages -- but if you want to keep your face cool - here's what my friend Amrita said- crushed cucumbers on the face. I promptly got a few cucumbers, diced it and put it inside a blender - nice thick puree I applied my face - Wow it was really cool,cool - jill ,jill (tamil word for cold) - Now I am ready walk through the furnace !!!Love JJ
