This is one of the very first Turkish idioms we learned upon our arrival here in Turkey. Like most idioms it doesn't make much sense in Google Translate (which is actually true for most Turkish). Literally it translates to "Pastrami temperatures have arrived." In America we would call it the "Indian Summer" which doesn't make any more sense and is a little racist.
It was described to me that this was known as the time for hanging your meats to dry. The air has lost the brutal humidity of the summer but the heat has come back to allow for quick drying of meats. So the Pastrami temperatures have arrived here in Turkey.

You guys look great and these photos are great. So beautiful. And, I am not jealous at all that you can be on a beach right now in a dress because of the salami weather. Not. at. all. :)
