Why did I consider buying pork ears at the grocery store today? I don't need a silk purse. Oh, I know what you're all thinking. You're thinking, "But you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear." I'm sure that's why they sell at least three pork ears per package--you need more than one ear per purse.
Seeing packaged pig ears can make even a committed omnivore think there are some body parts that simply should not be removed from the animal who grew them. And then, if you're me, it makes you wonder if one of those ears belonged to Pigcent van Gogh.
In other news, a black cat crossed my path this evening--twice. I believe black cats bring good luck and would have invited this one into the house if allowed to do so. The cat looked very much at home sitting on our front porch. I wonder what it would have done if presented with a pork ear.
