The day went pretty well with a few obstacles and complications that we worked through. A good experience overall.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05124854790635683665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806644789710396926.post-20289112143629385012010-09-12T08:52:19.274-08:002010-09-12T08:52:19.274-08:00As a woman I am so excited for you - because I kin...As a woman I am so excited for you - because I kinda think that if my day added up to "just me" I would have said "I guess this pig gets a reprieve!"

Last pig I had one ham smoked and one left alone. Next time I have a pig done I'm going to skip having the hams smoked. I costs a dollar a pound to have it done and I like pulled pork better. Bacon though that's another story, must maximize bacon. Never enough bacon!<br /><br />SheilaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806644789710396926.post-91518431107494911942010-09-11T09:06:39.311-08:002010-09-11T09:06:39.311-08:00What a valuable experience this day will bring!
