This little piggy went to market

Last month I decided to buy half a pig from the same farm where we get our chickens, turkey and beef.  Our freezer is full and all I have to say is YUM!!  We’ve had pork sausage and pork chops so far and they were both delicious.  I can hardly wait to fry up some bacon!  Buying meat from a local farm makes all the difference in the quality and taste of the end product!  So we now get our fruits and veggies, dairy and meat from a farm.  Maybe one day, we’ll have our own little farm…or maybe we’ll just keep on like we are.

I just made a loaf of Scott’s favorite soap – a double mint (peppermint and spearmint) that I named, Refresh.  He says that he likes it so much because the crisp scent wakes him up in the morning.  Now we just have to wait a month until the soap finishes curing.  In the meantime, it sure smells nice every time I walk by the drying rack!
