Perhaps a revision to Webster's is called for, because a suitable addition to the meaning of "treat" is receiving an overnight visit from friend, colleague, and former Wake Forest grad student Dr. Bradley Phillis. That's what occurred on Thursday, November 14th, when he was in the area for a conference of fellow medievalists. I promised supper, and supper was delivered in the form of baby back pork ribs with homemade barbecue sauce, a creamy four-cheese casserole monstrosity of mac-n-cheese, and some seasoned green beans for good measure. We talked late into the evening, catching up but also bouncing around article ideas because both of us should be writing more, and we should definitely be writing together.
Turns out Bradley had not ever had a rack of pork ribs before, and he made clear this will not be his last go at them.
