Temperature back into the more seasonal highish twenties, with humidity still pleasantly low and nice breeze. Interesting the benefits of a very high ceiling. Probably 25 feet. Of course heat rises and hangs out along the distant ceiling. Less useful in winter. But also good during lockdown for making the place feel larger than it is in usable square area. A phenomenon we’ve noticed before. The flat we stayed at in St Petersburg (Leningrad) Russia was not large but was in a building with old fashioned high ceilings - though lower than here - and the effect was similar.
Third day of the three day holiday. Aysel messages to say that her mum has made bulgur koftesi and she is bringing us over some for dinner, which she does. They’re a sausage shaped bulgur and potato casing stuffed with a ground meat, onion and ground nut filling. Then fried - or can be deep fried. Delicious. And Aysel knew we love them.
