Shiawassee County Fair · 20 August 08 by Heather Voss Barta
I had a great time last week at the Shiawassee County Fair! I got to see parishioners show their pigs and their dogs. Sue and I bought a pen of pigs at the auction. That was so much fun.
On Monday, my sister and I went and picked them up. We get 1/2, Sue gets 1/2, and Henry sold one to a friend at work. I love real pig!

Couldn’t we use the word “pork” instead of pig, please? Sounds less human.

Oh, the American terms that we use to cover up what we really mean….to ensure that we don’t actually think about it… our meat comes from somewhere before the packages….

Kind of like the refusal to call “long pig” what it really is.
