QuoteBEDFORD, N.H. - Blistering heat was just what Sandi Fontaine needed to bake cookies for her co-workers ? on the dash of her Toyota RAV4.
With temperatures soaring Wednesday, Fontaine placed two trays of cookie dough on the dashboard, shut the doors and retreated inside to her air-conditioned office.
"My husband wanted me to run some errands this morning," said Fontaine, who works at Baldwin and Clarke Corporate Finance. "I said, \'I can\'t. I\'m baking cookies.\'"
Fontaine first tested her dashboard oven three years ago. She said anyone can do it; the only requirement is for the outside temperature to be at least 95 degrees, so it will rise to about 200 degrees in the car. Temperatures in the area reached the mid- to upper 90s on Wednesday.
"Mrs. Fields has nothing on Sandi," co-worker Brian Champigny said of the cookie company.
Though Thursday was supposed to be cooler, Fontaine said she\'ll still enjoy the benefits of her culinary effort.
"When you open the door to that car," she said, "it\'s like, oh, my God. It\'s a wonderful smell." -

Actually today feels like a crisp fall day compared to tuesday, wednesday, and yesterday this week.
Mandler, thank you however, for proving yet again that there is absolutely posatively nothing to do in the state of New Hampshire..... -

75 degrees is definitely a relief today...
living at my cousin\'s house has been rough for me all summer without air conditioning (i bought an ac unit for my room).
i came home from work on wednesday ready to brace myself for the god awful heat in their house only to discover that the power was out.
all i have to say is thanks to all the swimming pools out there that have treated me so well this past week...
i cannot wait for fall>winter. -
