Does ''summer foods'' make you feel better in the winter?

Oh god yes! I have been sick of winter food for the last 3 weeks. I'm trying to 'change-it-up' and cook a little lighter with foods that cook faster, rather than the usual 2 hr, slow roasting winter foods. I'm really enjoying my mayo, lettuce and cuber stuffed pitas for lunch, throw in some iced tea and I'm feeling a bit of spring fever. I'm also loving the avocados right now too. Drizzled with a little olive oil and lemon juice and pink peppercorns and I'm thinking summer is right around the corner.
