Just look at these BBQ'ed Banana Boats

Just look at them.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I’m looking, but these banana boats don’t look particularly BBQ’ed to me. Wait a minute…is that a highly deadly black tarantula?

Now look at this Stan Freburg version of The Calypso Singer. Just look at it.

I used to make those all the time as a kid. I think it’s time to revisit my inner child and make them again.

I was also shocked to see Microsoft advertising here. I guess Watchimosomomo can’t pay all the bills though.

You don’t need to wrap the bananas in foil if you wait until the coals have cooled a bit off, or if you place the bananas near the edge of the grill. I recommend dark chocolate with chili, or with mint for variation.
