Pigs...Pigs...Pigs


This post is dedicated to one of my greatest friends, mentors, and sometimes adopted mother…Skeet-you can’t touch this pig collection.

It is a four day holiday weekend here in Germany and we decided to take our vacation at home. Because I have been such a Pig lately, eating at all the fabulous restaurants and writing mostly about food here in Germany in my blog the past few weeks, I thought it was only appropriate to drag the kids (and Jason) to the World’s largest Pig Museum located right here in Stuttgart.

Now that is a BBQ!
As the three of them got comfortable in the Pig Biergarten/playground, I headed off to tour the “Schweine Musuem”.  After purchasing my ticket and climbing up the stairs, I couldn't believe my eyes...millions of pig items.  My crazy brain immediately started singing it’s own version of Motley Crue…“Pigs..Pigs..Pigs”.  I swear, this museum was better than a comedy show for me…I just couldn’t stop laughing because I have never seen so many pig collections; pigs on a beach, piggy banks, glass pigs, wooden pigs, lego pigs, little pigs, art pigs and even a pig peep show.  The only pig I didn’t see was a ‘Pig in a blanket.” 

Of course, we finished our day in their Biergarten...eating roasted chicken!!!!

Now I will know what to order in the Metzgerei!
