introducing . . .

. . . DINNER! Well, they will be in several months. After our not-so-great pigs last year we made sure that we got the right kind of pigs to raise for butchering this year. We picked up the little piggies Monday evening. Can it just tell you that they S-T-I-N-K! It was only a 5 mile ride with them in the back of the Sequoia in boxes, but I could hardly stand it (Chase either). Curse my darn "super nose". The pigs really are quite cute with their pink skin, white eyelashes, and big ears . The remind me of Wilbur from Charlotte's Web. And, omigoodness, they are the nosiest eaters I think I have ever heard...snorting, smacking, and making all kinds of noise. Now I know where the saying "Stop eating like a pig" came from.
