Braai Day


I have a new personal hero.

Driving home Monday, tears literally came to my eyes as I listened to an All Things Considered (NPR) story about Jan Scannell, who is on a one-man crusade to unite South Africa around the wonder of grilling over hardwood while drinking beer. No country this side of glory can compare to these United States, but I'm almost ready to emigrate just so I can regularly partake of boerewors.

Grilled sausages: that which truly unites all humanity.
