Amish Paradise

We got the quote for the Berkshire heritage piggy.

And it was a little high. I mean, in another life, $400 for a pig wouldn't seem too bad, but it does seem rather decadent for a trial run.

So I called some other farms, and then I called some butchers. Butchers apparently know where to get great meat.

We got a butcher in Crofton that gets his pigs from some Amish farmers on the Delmarva peninsula. And it's about half the cost.

Let me know what you think. Did I compromise down?
