Pig in the Parlor

Several items of interest, today:

1. As my sister, JIll, navigates the turbulent waters of 5 consecutive weekends of bridal/couples showers, she must also write thank you notes for each and every gift.  Midway through this process, she realized that she was thanking people for the "lovely bowels" rather than the "lovely bowls."

2. Also, in the Thank You note process, Jill made the mistake of showing my mom her standard text.  I really appreciate the fact that Kay (our mother) inserted the phrase "My mother is so lucky to have friends like you!" into the template.

3. At my high school reunion, a dear friend brought me an article regarding the surge in the wild hog population in Texas.  Texas bears 50% of the nation's population, which is set to double over the next few years.  They have become quite a nuissance.  In response, I am teaching Fern to hunt for wild hog by feeding her dried pig ears.  She loves them:
