Mostly Semantics

Months ago, before this blog existed (at least outside of our minds), MBG, CV and I were discussing what the lineups would be for our dream concerts. Rules being:

Well, with a tip of my hat to Anthony, I’d just like to show you that my tastes are trendsetting! The (I’ll say) influential Washingtonian food bloggers agree, pork jowl is so HOT for 2008!
