Apparently, I'm in very good company....
"I am fond of pigs.
Dogs look up to us.
Cats look down on us.
Pigs treat us as equals. "

About Me
- A Brit in Tennessee
- Tennessee, United States
- A British expat transplanted into the lush Tennessee countryside. Wife, mother, grandma. The other character in this plot, being Oliver the cat, gingerness and aloof. I'm a lover of old. Time-worn, antiques, quilts, primitives, heirloom pieces, potting sheds, English literature, poetry, Battenburg lace, blue willow, cottages, white ironstone dishes, English transferware, worn-out picket fences, teapots, old bird houses, moss-covered clay pots, gardening, all creatures great and small. "And they loaded up their trucks and they moved to Tennessee....hills there are, swimming holes, country stars".

and so you spoke the truth, there are lots of pigs among us and not the cute ones like these are. these look like hand carved and they are beautiful. I like the dark behind them. i see a cute pink nose on the little one. I like pigs to
As a son of a pig farmer I have so many memories about this animal. Your two little pigs are neat.
I am becoming quite fond of them, and I think it all started when I got a pig with wings that has the saying "It is said it will happen when pigs fly" that got me started. I hope you're having an enjoyable week! :-)
Winston Churchill got it right.
I like those Pigs that you can pick up an rattle coins inside.
Cute little pigs, Jo.... I used to have a HUGE Pig Piggybank when I was a child... It took me FOREVER to fill it... BUT-- when I wanted all of those coins, we had to break that piggybank... I cried since I had become attached to that pig.
Love the quote by Churchill.

He was a witty old fellow wasn't he! I love pigs too...I think I need a pig ornament in my garden...when I have a garden that is. Enjoy your day Jo....Maura :)
I love the pig in "Toy Story 3" too. He's so cute, and he reminds me of the big wooden guy. If you haven't seen it yet, I hope you will enjoy it!!
The verse about the pigs made me chuckle it is so true. You little pigs are so cute.
I have not seen that quote about a pig before. I loved the movie Pig you know the little pink thing, like the little monkey said.
I like these pigs you have here...but at the fair this week-end with real pigs...well, I think yours here in this post are mighty fine.
God bless,
d
