National Pig Day

Today is National Pig Day.  Started in 1972 by two school teachers, it is a day to accord the pig its rightful, though generally unrecognized, place as one of man's most intellectual and domesticated animals.  Mr Hobbs celebrated by remaining domesticated and continuing his service as our weather pig.  As you can see, it snowed yesterday. The rest of us would have celebrated with pork ribs but we forgot to get any in advance of the day.  Maybe next year.  This year?  Probably pizza.  Pepperoni is a pork product, right?

Awesome! I love random day holidays. So glad that you have a potbellied pig to help you celebrate (in addition to tasty pepperoni). Sounds great!
