Pigs of Norway
My husband loves to golf. He recently headed to Norway (because we don’t have enough courses here in Texas) to play a few rounds with friends. What did I get out of this, you might ask? In addition to a quiet house where I got to write in my pajamas all day, my husband sent…

When Pigs Fly
I’m not entirely sure this one counts as an official Potluck Pig… but I’m including it anyway. Because I am obsessed. If you’ve never had Graeter’s, we need to fix that immediately. It is, hands down, the best ice cream. Ever. Even Oprah Winfrey said so back in 2002. Technically, she called it her favorite.…

When Pigs Fly
It’s time for our first Potluck Pig of 2026. I know, I know. You’re thinking, It’s a pig. But humor me. There’s always a point. Eventually. Some of you may have seen this flying pig pop up on Instagram a few months ago, but it deserved a proper introduction here. This little guy was a…

A little coffee with your pig
And the Pigs Are Back! So, here’s the scene: a cute ceramic pig peeking at me from the bottom of my coffee mug. Yep. This beauty was a birthday gift, and I’m officially in love. Is it quirky to sip my morning coffee and spot a piglet grin back at me? Absolutely. But would I…

I see chickens!
I know this post is supposed to be about pigs, but since publishing Turn Around, I’ve been seeing chickens everywhere. It’s probably the Baader-Meinhof effect. Once something’s on your mind, you start noticing it all around you. Like when you are deciding if you want a white car and discover that 80% of the cars…

What long lashes!
May’s Potluck Pig has arrived, and I couldn’t be more delighted! This charming little piggy was a gift from my cousin-in-law, and she’s the latest (and possibly the most fabulous) addition to my ever-growing collection. Just look at those eyelashes—so dramatic, so glamorous! If she could talk, I’m convinced she’d have the sassiest personality, tossing…

Pig deal!
Happy New Year, friends! Let’s kick off 2025 with a little whimsy and a whole lot of caffeine. Say hello to this year’s first Potluck Pig—and let me tell you, it’s a winner. In fact, I’m declaring it the best coffee mug in the world. (Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating—but only a little!) Here’s the thing:…

Practical pigs
This is the fourth Potluck Pig for 2024. Collecting things takes up space. Even as cute as my pigs are, I’ve started thinking about where a new pig would go before I buy it. That’s why I now have a pig tea towel. It’s functional and I will be able to enjoy my new pig…

Irish pig, anyone?
This is the third Potluck Pig for 2024. This little fellow came all the way from Ireland. My husband traveled over the summer and he brought the pig back for me. He’s more silver than the picture shows (the pig, not my husband, although he is pretty gray these days), but I kinda like the…

See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil!
This is the second Potluck Pig for 2024. I happened upon these three cuties while driving 600 miles to college orientation (my daughter’s, not mine – although never say never!). They’re fun and feisty, even if the speak no evil pig is a bit wobbly! The three little pigs reside on our kitchen table to…
