after dinner sneeze

t says:  Man-o-man.  It’s fall in Philly, and the restaurants are doing up pig in all kinds of ways.  I realize that this might just be a personal delusion, but I like to pretend that Fall is the season that marks the “Return of the Pig”.  It’s an end to the light-and-fluffy seafood and berry dishes of summer.  Bring on the root vegetables.  Bring on the hearty slabs of meat.  Bring on the oink.

In celebration of Fall, I think that we may have to institute “Pork Caps” around here.  What the hell is Pork Caps?  Pork Caps is the utilization of ALL CAPITALIZED LETTERS when referring to pig dishes.  For instance: PORK BELLY, PORK SHOULDER, PORK CHEEK, SAUSAGE, etc.  Will it get annoying?  Quite possibly.  Will it get the point across?  Absolutely!  It’s a risk I’m willing to take.
