It's arrived! It's arrived! Melbourne, your cool change has hit and we're all on speaking terms with Mother Nature again. I can use my kitchen, ride my bike, walk at lunchtime. I can go to bed not dreading another night tossing and turning. It's cooled down (chilly even) and we're all walking around with foolish grins on our faces.
When it's as crazy hot as it has been and for as long as it has been, no one feels like lighting an oven. We fired up the barbie and grilled some chicken and steaks (though I realise in hindsight I shouldn't have even done that, being a total fire ban and all). Rice paper rolls are my hot night go to dish of summer - they're refreshing and cooling but you still get to knock up a nice meal (and I don't mean get it pregnant).
