I am the Kat that Walks By Itself

I've been delaying pulverizing the already-frozen tubs because the weather here has taken a turn for the wintry. And the thought of eating ice cream while my toes are cold is not really appealing. But I have made up some more ice-cream bases anyway.

So now there are currently five tubs in the freezer, which is the maximum I have. So I shall have to try some ice cream before I make up any more bases. But not when it is so cold! Look, it is currently 13C, in December, which might be warm for some of you, but it happens to be summertime over here! Is is the equivalent, for you Americans out there, for it to be 55F in July. In San Francisco.

I was just thinking about the Flanders & Swann parody of "January Brings The Snow" and I wish someone would do an Aussie version. Something along the lines of...

January's bloody hot, hot enough to fry an egg in the sun
February is bloody hot too. Is that a cloud? No, it's smoke from bushfires.
March is hot. No it's a bit cooler. No, it's bloody hot again.
April, is it cool yet? Yeah, it's raining.
May is raining, rain, rain, rain and cold.
June is cold, I'm sick of this cold, oh there's a bit of cold sun.
July is cold, and raining
August, is it warm yet? Well, it's raining.
September is cool, warm, cool, warm and windy.
November is warm, no, drat, it is hot, why did it have to get hot so soon?
December is bloody hot.

I declare I give up on the fandom_snowflake challenge for this year. Heatwave trumps everything, and I don't feel like catching up later. Though there will be an upcoming craft post when I am less melting.

It is HOT. HOT HOT HOT HOT! Hot.

HOT!

9:30PM at night and it is 31C (88F); top of 43C (109F) again tomorrow.

Don't expect anything coherent out of me.
