Food from a fat vegetarian. I am not a fan of summer. Forty degree days, sunburn, public transport chaos, and sweating without even moving are just not my idea of fun. I survive by staying indoors, closing all the blinds, sitting in front of the fan, and obsessively checking the Melbourne real time temperature update. In hopes of a cool change.
