Foppish bicycle

This bicycle was parked matter-of-factly on the sidewalk.
The leather seat and matching saddlebags, fanny-pack, and pencil-case (what are the appropriate terms for these bicycle accoutrements?) all make this the bicycle equivalent of a flashy sportscar. It begs to be stolen, and brags of its owner's affluence.


This post's theme word is passiuncle, "an insignificant or trivial passion." The pretentious bicycle signified his passiuncle.

Slow-cooked pulled pork

I pass my days amongst men who love eating meat. One of them owns a crock pot that was getting little use, so he lent it to us. In return, we invited him to share our inaugural meal: pulled pork.
It was delicious.


This post's theme word is esurient, "hungry" or "greedy." What an esurience-inducing photograph.
