[CH] Yank lost in Sydney...

Hello,

I'm new to the list (and have been having a blast reading all the
postings...you're my kind o'people...).I have a few questions for the
Australian list people..

I have recently moved to Sydney from San Diego and am desperately looking
for Anaheim chiles...any suggestions? I can't seem to find any, which really
causes problems with half the recipes I want to make...i.e. green chile
stew, etc.  I have found jalapenos, serranos, and habeneros, but can't seem
to get any those pesky Anaheims, (...what's strange is that there are
habeneros mixed in the jalapenos at most of the local supermarkets up here
in the Northern beaches...imagine what a surprise that will be to the unwary
buyer...)

I know about Senor Nilas and will be going to the Fiery Food Expo in June,
but any suggestions, help, etc. would be greatly appreciated - feel free to
email me privately.  Also, Is there going to be a list gathering at the Expo
at all? I would love to meet some like-minded people...

One last thing... and what's the deal with the spelling here? Is everything
(the dish con carne, the plants, the pods, the powder, etc.)  spelled
"chilli"? I should know the local etiquette...

Thanks a lot!
Debbie
