It’s too hot to sleep – here’s how people are dealing (or not) with it

Is it acceptable to take a bag of frozen peas to bed as an improvised cold water bottle? #toohottosleep

You will pea in the bed.

A sock filled with uncooked rice, knotted at the top & frozen is a less soggy alternative, but heck if you prefer peas go for it!
