Coffee is on.
More frost this morning. And tomorrow. Hope the new plants survive not being planted yet.
Have dentist appointment, probably good since I have a tooth that is bothering me. Hoping it's the same tooth they said needed a crown a year ago and not another one.
Picking up a whole pork today. DH knew someone raising them that no longer had an outlet. They knew someone who could process, paid less than $300 for it. Nothing will be smoked but maybe we can figure that out. Need to figure out how to make side into bacon too.

Frost? How about the last six days wev had horrible snow storms, hail, and wind so bad, it nearly blew me over the one day! I ended bringing in a bunch of bunnies...and next year I’m leaving bunnies in the barn until at least May...I’ve lost kits due to the temp fluxes and getting wet. Never again! Anyone about to kindle, in poopy weather is coming in! Had NO issues all winter long....ugh! Ok, sorry for complaining. I think we might be going to an auction today. I really hope. This would be our ‘day off’. They are only letting so many people in, so you have to go really early...that part stinks. Ok, have a good day everyone! Stay warm!!

@promiseacres I’ve made bacon before, it is not hard to do. On my phone, but I’ll get on laptop tonight and give you more information.

Feeder Pigs 2017
Even better! The neighbors have them in their yard! :thumbsup:lol:;) 6 pigs is going to fill both of your freezers pretty well! :drool Exactly. Plus they already had the fencing so we are both in it for a lower cost. We are hoping to feed the pigs out to 250-300lbs and my hope is to be in each...

Keep reading this thread and you’ll find how I made bacon. There is a recipe on this page too.

Might be time to build or buy a smoker @promiseacres 
Sorry about the tooth, I too hope that it is the one that already needs work.
