I have grilled in the cold and snow in the past, but it just isn't enjoyable. I don't even like stepping outside when it is below 40, so I'm not going to be bothered to try and cook a meal out in it.

The best part of grilling is the social aspect. Hanging out with friends or family out on the deck, enjoying the sunny weather, throwing back a few cold brews... When you take that out of the equation it loses its fun, even if the food tastes better.

Lol, once again I must have a different sort of friends. Cause the only thing that changes is what we're wearing and how cold it is when we grill. We still hang out on the deck and knock them back And snow makes a great beer holder, lol.

Add me to the list of people who hate cold weather. Whenever I see it snowing I'm like, "awww crap!" Especially if I haven't gotten all my christmas shopping done by then...

Afterwards, when I got holiday till new years, I do like looking out the window and seeing how amazing the fresh snow looks on the houses and trees... Inside where it's warm and I have some fresh coffee... Yeah that's nice.

Thank god I live in one of the milder parts of north america where the snow melts super fast.

Oh, I thought of another one!

If you go to the grocery store, and then get home, if you have to do something else, besides bringing in the groceries, then it is no problem! You can leave the groceries in the car all afternoon! What are they going to do, get cold?
