This is prime Barbequeing time. Perfect, some would say. The heat lingers but is no longer demobilizing. The wind slows and comes close to a halt. The daytime sounds disappear into a sizzle.
And my attention is focused on one thing and one thing only: EXTREME FLAVA TO THA MAXX.
There's something therapeutic about cooking by yourself. Especially when it is outside over flames. (Gas, but hey, let's not be cocks). It's a good time to think about all that stuff you haven't because you have been distracted by friends, TV shows, music, commitments etc. Quite often my mind wanders and I think of some person from years ago that I used to spend time with and no longer see. What are they doing now? Or thinking about something my Dad said then realizing sometimes I say almost the exact same thing, and the more I go down that train of thought, the more I can see how much like my Dad I am.
Then I eat some falafel.
