Last year we had pick up on Tuesdays. This year I switched it to Friday thinking it would be better because I would have all weekend to figure out how to use the vegetables. Not really such a good call on my part. We don’t spend much time at home on weekends. And it stinks to stop what you are doing to go to the farm on Friday afternoon. So, next year, back to Tuesday.
This past Friday we took the Todd girls with us. Unfortunately for Carrie, or maybe fortunately, Faye fell asleep in the car so Carrie didn’t get to see it. But Faye got a nap and I think that was win for Carrie.
They were getting ready for a wedding at while we were there. The big white tent was up and lots of preparations were happing. There was a couple down by the pigs while we were looking at them (I would assume they are bride and groom). Mya asked what they were doing and Alec told her they were picking out the pig for the pig roast. He said this very matter of fact…my child who waffles between eating bacon and not eating it because it is pig. I have no idea if that was what they were doing but it was plausible. They do pig roast at wedding there. I’m not sure how Alec knew this- I don’t really remember talking to him about it. While this was happening, a worker came down and brought down bread. Lots of bread. She handed a baguette to each child to throw to the pigs. The farm gets all the leftovers from Standard Baking Company in Portland. The pigs eat better bread than I do!
