Thats how I am when it comes to eating. Except for cooking on the barbeque in the warm weather. I love that. Everything seems to taste so good when its cooked on the grill. And I tend to have more cold dishes like potatoe salad and macronii sald.MMM good now Im hungry.LOL

I have different menus in different seasons. I mean during cold seasons I eat a bit more, I mean I need a bit more energy to cope with the cold and the wind and so on. So I prefer having lots of soups, creams, and hot drinks. My favourite is the vegetable soup I can prepare. I like it served very hot and I like having it at evening when coming back from job. During summer for example I can live eating salads, fruits, icecreams, raw vegetables and so on. I prefer fresh and light food in order to restore the fluids we lose because of sweating and be strong enough to bear the hot temperatures we can have here. Moreover I am very keen on water and I always pay good attention to drinking a good amount of water, no matter the season is!!!

Yes out diet does change with the weather. For example in the summer it can get very hot here, so we tend towards salads more than anything, although of course I still have to cook the meat. We will always have cold meats in the fridge and I will generally cook them in the early hours of the morning when it is cooler. The days where we are can often be between 38-43 degrees Celsius and it makes for hard working cooking hot meals every day.
In the winter meals tend to be roasts, casseroles, soups etc because there is no problem cooking them during the day. We also have porridge for breakfast rather than cold cereal during the cooler months.

I find that weather affects both what I eat and when I eat it. I grew up in a warmer place than where I live now, and there breakfast was early, dinner was late, and both of these meals were heavy and hot. Lunch was light and usually eaten cold (salad or sandwiches).
Where I live now is a cold place, most of the year, so I tend to eat more soups and hot food. I also tend to eat more often.

We eat more bread in the winter. Drink hot drinks. Pork products more and roasts of all kinds too. Also a bit more fats. Summer fare is light and lots more vegetables. Plenty of smoothies and iced drinks.
