Luke has stolen my thunder! I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with Tony and his granddaughter yesterday, and I can report that he is truly as lovely in person as he is in text. The afternoon went far too quickly. The naughty man brought me goodies! I got some of his hab powder (lovely and smoky), red savina (TM) powder, jalapeno jam (as yet untried), and hab-roasted peanuts, which are just to die for. And the look on his granddaughter's face as I tried them was hilarious(!) She couldn't believe what she was seeing. Guess he hasn't trained her yet. He had a few things to fix up this morning, but expects to get out of Sydney before lunch, local time, today. Over to you, Luke!
