Name That Pig Contest!
 |
Not to be confused with the whole
roast pig that joined us (unwillingly
perhaps) for our recent Club BBQ, our
contest was aimed at finding an apropos
name for Bill’s latest piece of BBQ
equipment (shown at left). Yes, it’s
a pink pig.
Among the names submitted:
La Rose Coquette
Char Les Crique
Senorita Rosarita
Le Cochon Rose
Pinky
Sue Wine |
By popular vote we ended up with a
hybrid of Bill’s choice
“Pinky” and Elizabeth
Bosco’s submission “Sue
Wine” (say it fast) for the winning
Nom de Pig: Pinky Sue
Wine! (Think of a driving
Buddy Holly beat: “Pretty, pretty,
pretty Pinky Sue”
…).
For Ms. Bosco’s creative
effort, she will receive a pair of
delicious CCV wines (not swines), which are
winging their way to CT even as you read
this; for Bill’s contribution he will
receive nothing since he is the owner of
both the Pink Pig and the Charles Creek
Winery (conflict of interest, you
know).
CHEERS!
