And I'm so glad you're finally getting to indulge in fish. The belly was amazing (and the potatoes weren't bad, either - pork fat improves just about anything). Mike picked up two more bellies this morning, so you can be sure we'll do this again very soon. :) claudia – it *is* wonderful on fish, particularly the meatier kinds like swordfish and halibut.

Honestly, I sometimes feel bad that our neighbors come home from work and are greeted with our mysterious cooking smells. We should probably invite them down more often. :) Thanks, Terry.

I know I would be. With all the wonderful cooking smells that must routinely emanate from your apartment, why are neighbors not storming your door nightly, demanding to be fed? I know I would be.

When we arrived at his apartment, he had just finished searing the belly in his hood-less kitchen. As he answered the door, literal plumes of pork fat smoke started pouring out into the hallway. It was just hanging in the air, everywhere, and it took the rest of the night to clear out. But wow. They were among the most delicious things I've ever eaten.
