National Pig Day is an event held annually on March 1 in the United States to celebrate the pig. The holiday is most often celebrated in the Midwest of the US.
The holiday celebration in the USA was started in 1972 by sisters Ellen Stanley, a teacher in Lubbock, Texas, and Mary Lynne Rave of Beaufort, North Carolina.[1][2][3] According to Rave the purpose of the National Pig Day is "to accord the pig its rightful, though generally unrecognized, place" as one of the most intelligent domesticated animal.

It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

Ya! But bacon doesn't just fall off a hog's back. There is some work to be done. 😋
What? I thought it just magically appeared on the shelves at the grocery store! My millennial friend told me so.
Celebrate tonight with some spare ribs.
I'd really love to join you with some ribs but had a molar pulled yesterday and it has not been a pleasant quick recovery. Probably be eating very soft, mushy foods for a spell. 🙁
Also National Pancake Day. Stop by your participating IHOP to get a free short stack to have with your bacon.
Had some a couple weeks back. Wife got one of those instant pots that is a pressure cooker. Few minutes in it and then glazed in the oven... I am good to go. Keep taking the antibiotics.
Wow, we had breaded pork chops for dinner today, and I didn't even know we were celebrating such an important holiday. Wait till I tell my wife, she will be so proud of herself. 😁

A whole day to celebrate Hillary? Pass.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Our Fat Tuesday block party is Pig/Possum party. Some great shank and Q being served along with PBR, Old Style fun fest!
Pig\Possum combo sounds like Southern Haggis to me! 😁
So you guys know my ex-wife.
My sister sent me this. I thought it was a neat idea!
