Mish and I created the crowning glory of all BBQs on Sunday. Granted, we slapped our prawns, steak, and kebabs on before it reached the pinnacle of it's perfection, but that is not to say that it negates the fact. The problem wasn't that we didn't know the science of starting a charcoal BBQ, in fact we repeatedly said that the coals needed to go grey and would in fact take some time, even whilst chucking extra fire starters on because it didn't look like they were heating, (perhaps it was due to the tears falling from our eyes due to the excessive amount of smoke) but we live in a world of instant gratification where things happen in quick succession, and our stomachs overtook logic! After we had "smoked" our food, barbequed the caffetia (literally, the handle started to melt), and concluded that one we didn't have anything else to cook on it and two even if we did we'd had too many cupcakes to stomach it, we watched the BBQ glow the night away. All this after our discussion about the future demise of the world due to wasteful energy usage.
