Rob and Melinda couldn’t resist checking out the Pig Races on Sunday, and I am glad they did. Here are some “Pigtures” (HA HA) that Rob took:

This is a picture of a lucky, parachute. People were apparently falling over themselves to catch these amidst the proliferation of confetti. They are VERY lucky!

I am going to be out of town this weekend, but for those of you lucky enough to be in New York City this weekend, you must go to Chinatown this Sunday, February 25th, for the parade that celebrates the Year of the GOLDEN Pig, which according to Chinese Fotunetellers, only comes around ever 600 years! Do NOT miss this. The big events that you must attend are the PIG RACES on Hester Street between Mott and Elizabeth Streets, at 11:30 AM, 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM. Like most of you, I have have attended Pig Races before (see pictures HERE) and take it from me, it is not something to be missed. They will run their little hearts out for you. Mind you, these are specially trained piglets, and they are gonna be fast!

Today starts it: Chinese New Year, and it’s the long awaited YEAR OF THE PIG. So, why not blog about pigs. I am no expert, but I can have a pig blog. I mean, I do really like pigs. And ribs.

This blog has started out of the search for excellent Ribs. As recently stated, I like Ribs. I am gonna cook and eat a lot of ribs in the Year of the Pig, so why not keep a record of this journey? I am not saying that this blog has to be about ribs and ribs alone, but by the Year of the Rat, I am pretty sure I am gonna know a thing or two about excellent Ribs. Anything tangentially related to pork, pigs, and pigishness is gonna be fair game here, and to be honest, that covers a lot.

Anyway, Welcome all, to YEAR OF THE PIG!

(PS–I will NOT be doing a similar blog in the year of the RAT)
