Porter and I got into an argument about how Pork Wellington got its name, and I won because I had seen that clip. Who says Food Network shows aren't educational? The recipe was incredibly easy to make, and everyone loved it. Scott even requested it for his birthday dinner in a couple of weeks. Along with that, we had Stilton/Gloucester cheese and crackers and green salad. I had planned on roasted red potatoes as a side, but I got lazy.
What dessert goes with British? Shortcake, of course, and according to this site, June 14 is Strawberry Shortcake Day. Even better! I don't have a pretty picture of it, though. Zao gao.

So I don't think I lost the argument, which wasn't much of an argument at all, by the way. You were right that his name was Wellesley, but the name Wellington from the Duke of Wellington doesn't derive from Wellesley but from Wellington in Somerset. Of course, that comes from wikipedia, which means that it's all probably made up anyway
