[ please forgive me, I cannot resist ]

well the area of the world I am from -

we know about I Q but what is Weber Q

A Weber Q is a gas-fired, modern (2003) development of the Weber kettle from the 1950s and 1960s. It's an American product from, I think, Chicago. Weber Q | Weber.com It seems that you call them grills. We call them barbecues as in "shrimp on the barbie" except we don't call them shrimps. They're prawns. As in "don't come the raw prawn with me".

we have pumpkins and acorn squash,

Butternut squash - Wikipedia

corn cobs were fed to farm animals or burnt for heat

Strictly speaking, I bought corn on the cob or ears of corn. Eh? We shorten stuff

[ I hope you have a safe and happy new year ]

And the same to you. We will stay at home on New Year's Eve and keep ourselves nice. We're too old for the rage until midnight thing. We get a panoramic view from home of two or three firework displays anyway, so we don't have to go somewhere to watch them. The peninsula's permanent population is around 25,000, but I'm told that we get anything up to 100,000 visitors per day at this time of year. It can be busy.

Regards,
Richard.

I like how the last one stuck the handle.

She can throw a skillet at me anytime.

Yup. The one who did a discus throw was pretty good too

She must be some cook, that's all I can say

Any other suggestion would get me pinged big time

[Almost forgot]

I mentioned something like that to my wife once.
Her reply was "You have to go to sleep sometime".

It was long enough ago that you told us that that it is not a tautology to tell us again. But it must sure have stuck in your mind.

I think that all you get is a pat on the shoulder... from your self!

He was motivated by the extrinsic factor of seeking recognitions and rewards, rather than the intrinsic factors of enjoyment and contribution in society.

made it up to 4F
no wind and it's a dry cold

not too bad

turning the scraps from a prime rib into French dips with onions and portabellas on grilled brioche...should be tasty

The NE sea breeze (5:30PM Wednesday here) is keeping the place cool. 24C / 75F. We've had a run of cold days, but Thursday and Friday are expected to be 27C and 29C / 84F. Overnight lows 21C / 70F.

I can live with that

See, there's a price to pay for those beautiful, hot Summers you fellas enjoy

Of course, over here the price we pay for mild Winters (-0.5°C, 31.1°F here right now) is that I'll be very lucky to cook outdoors half a dozen times next year...

On a positive note, we rarely suffer droughts

Had to give away my Weber when I came here. These guys cannot even make the gas the same, or even compatible with the Weber as build.

[tim60]

there is absolutely nothing nice about our summers,
I curse my wife, who wouldn't relocate when we could have done it on the company's dime, every day from may to October ( it used to be june to September)
but we do have nice cold winters even though there isn't enough snow any longer

we do cook outside year round

So, multiple choice question, is that because:
a. The weather has changed.
b. Your perception of the weather has changed.
c. You have taken on the personality disorder of Pentaxdude named in post 2, above. (It uses a word that apparently is sensitive on this site.)

Beautiful. Was the snow deep?

We cook outdoors year 'round.

At this time of year is it sorbet, ice cream and gelato?
