It’s sooooooo hot….
But that’s not what this post is about! But, really, for those of you not in Sydney- it is hot- about 37 degrees Celsius (over 90 Fahrenheit) at 10:30pm. HOT HOT HOT! Especially for a city where not everyone (and not us) has air conditioning! But who cares about that when there’s dinner to be made- which is…
