its almost 10:30 pm and its gotta be in the mid-20s still (it was around 36C today i think). its kinda funny listening to christmas carols right now and sweating through my thin summer clothing. the cool change was supposed to be here by now (i guess melbourne weather predicitions are rarely accurate anyway though so i don't know why i decided to take the channel 10 weather guy completely seriously anyway). i can't go to bed though until the change comes cuz it'll just be too hot and uncomfortable-- i'll just wait up for ray and give him some shelter when the cool change and probable rain actually comes. 8) i think i'm gonna go light some citronella candles (to keep the mozzies away) and sit in the backyard to wait for the change (and maybe make some more vegan egg nog while i wait).
i got the recipie from one of my favourite cookbooks (i can't remember what its called but its something to the effect of 400 vegan dishes from around the globe). its really simple:
1 1/2 cups vanilla soy ice cream
1 1/2 cups soy milk
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
3 tbsp dark rum (optional)
blend in the blender or food processor and then sprinkle with a bit of nutmeg on top once you pour it in glasses (it makes 2 nice big glasses or 6 regular "eggnog" cups)
it tastes just like the "real" stuff from the cartons in the grocery stores back home (they don't sell it in grocery stores here and most people have never even tried it).
