The nice thing about having a gas grill is you can walk outside, grill yourself up a little something, then wander back inside and, you know, eat it with very little fuss. There’s no planning, no charcoal chimney, no fretting about if the kindling is too wet or the wind will take out the flame. I love the convenience of it.

\nI am growing two bunches of basil in pots in my backyard. It’s leafy enough to pull some off for sandwiches but it’s not quite a pesto making bumper crop.
