I'm kinda getting tired of sweating two seconds after I leave our apartment.  I've taken to extreme measures Pinterest to find out how to remedy this heat wave.  So far, the MO has been to grin and bare it.  (And yes, I mean that kind of bare as I have been stripping down to my skivvies as soon as I get home and have been sleeping mostly naked.)

So, to get your weekend started, here are my best tips for staying cool:

1.  Eat cold treats
