I'm having company for dinner, and it is so hot while prepping?

My hair is wet and stuck to my head. I’m sweating. At least I baked the shortcakes already so no more hot oven.

I need ideas for cooling off, but I still have some dinner stuff to prepare.

quick cold shower.
lots of cold water.
open your windows for some nice draft.
limit the food to cold meals (salads, noodle/potatoe salad with marinated fish, sushi)

Run cold water over your wrists for a quick cool down.

Cool water over your wrists and inside elbows.
Soak a towel in cold water, wring it out, and put it around your neck. 2 so you can change them out quickly.

Put a bucket filled with cold water beneath your table, so you can soak your feet while chopping. A damp, frozen towel is very cooling, even more so than a wet one.

Thanks all. I took 10 minutes to lie down in the air-conditioned bedroom and felt much better. Dinner was successful!
