There really is nothing we like better (see here for an example: http://www.weareneverfull.com/arroz-con-gandules/) because (and not to sound too trite) but like food, knowledge is best when shared. @Chris – thanks for the correction and the props (as well as admitting to being a regular reader!) – and please, if you see something else that’s erroneous, feel free to call us out when we get it wrong.

Take it or leave it, of course, but I think it's much more fun to say octopods than octopi. :) I read your blog religiously. Keep up the good work!

Given the heat we've been having, I'll probably just grill the fennel right before the octupus (or squid! yum) or just leave 'em raw. Yum. Oh they look delicious!

You sneak around well. I have always been tempted to find a tiny grill to use on my balcony, but my building has its busybodies. There is one woman who if she catches you putting your trash in the wrong place, she'll carry it back to your apartment and put it in front of your door with a note. I can't imagine what she would do if she caught me grilling. I hope she never walks by the apaartment of the guy who lives two doors down from me on a Saturday morning since every Saturday morning he makes the hallway reek of marijuana. My grill solution is a cast iron grill pan. It gives me some approximation of grilled food, although it nearly smokes us out when I use it. :-D Ha ha! You sneak around well.

Last summer, I think I ate cold cereal for dinner more than once, or I stood over the sink to eat an entire cantaloupe. And lots of take-out. Grilling always seems like too much trouble when it's hot out, but if it save the temperature of your indoors, I guess it's probably worth it. Ooh, what about the basement? Does your building have one of those? Kudos to you two. Last summer, I think I ate cold cereal for dinner more than once, or I stood over the sink to eat an entire cantaloupe. And lots of take-out.

I love octopus prepared like this. I'm laughing at the mental picture of you grilling on your rooftop. :) This looks wonderful! I love octopus prepared like this.
