I live in the northern USA. On another board an Aussie said it was 76¡F on Christmas and I told him I thought the ice-fishing there must be awful; but he reminded me that Santa arrives there fifteen hours earlier, and that he preferred slathering on sunscreen to dressing in furs.
I liked watching the Summer Olympics from DownUnder awhile back; and while recently watching the recent Olympics in Torino, Italy I was reminded about the food --there was a lot of coverage of the food.
My best friend through jr. high and much of high school was the son of Italian immigrant parents. Since he was an only child, I was taken everywhere with them like a part of the family. I enjoyed holidays, weekends, and just everyday life as part of a large New Jersey Italian community with food, food, food, for all those years.
So yesterday I stopped at a local consignment shop and came across the book: "The Art of Italian Cooking: The complete book of regional recipes" --I got it for $3. Been reading it ever since.

It is likely that you would also prefer sunscreen to furs, but I'll bet we could agree on sipping a little annisette after dinner--you on a beach blanket, me on a bearskin rug in front of a nice fire preferably with a luscious babe who loves annisette, if I'm lucky.
I am still trying to figure out why Santa would fly fully-loaded all the way from the North Pole to Australia rather than lighten his load over North America first but have never been a good enough boy to risk confronting him over it. He must like you better , that's all. It's OK, I'll still share my book with you.
