Oh yeah some of the smoke drifted our way but I guess central Victoria is like California in mid summer - hot, dry and very fire prone. Interesting that it got reported there. Certainly been a hot summer so far, low rainfall last year, and more heat to come 🥵. Crank up the aircon!
We have some fires to put out up here...of the human kind! Might I suggest a spritz? Here's one for when I want to keep drinking but I know moderation is key. 6oz seltzer, 4oz white grapefruit juice packaged, 2oz pomegranite juice (we get Pom here), Half an oz. lime juice (or lemon) plus a splash or two of some combination of bitter ingredients: Suze, Cocchi Americano, Bitter Bianco, etc.
