Yes I will take a pork chop the size of Texas, please.


What a farm week it has been!  The little boys, Tony and I went to JL Farm Equipment Co., Inc. for "Customer Appreciation Day" on Wednesday.  Now, when I here Customer Appreciation Day, I think "deep discounts on items and maybe a cupcake or some chocolate."  Yeah, JL does customer appreciation a little differently.  I have never seen so many trucks, farmers and blue jeans in a limited space in my entire life. To say that the little boys were in farm heaven is an understatement.  So many tractors and combines, plus cookies and ice cream.  It was truly the Disney of the little boy world and my little boys had an express pass to all the attractions.  It is really hard to put into words what this event was like so I will narrate via picture.
Yes, every vehicle in attendance is a truck except for our lame minivan.  Talk about being a fish out of water.
3 farm boys enjoying the day.
Yes, all farmers standing in line to eat.  Eat what, you might ask? Well, pork chops from Dewig Meats which is local and amazing.  Now, I will tell you that I WAS looking all cute in my khaki shorts and turquoise shirt that said "I kissed a farmer and I liked it." Tony bought it for me and I felt "all country" wearing it.  Yeah, I might have been a smidge out of place but I totally owned it and smiled at all those blue jean farmers.
Dewig Meats, which is a local meat provider and butcher grilled up our grub (http://www.dewigmeats.com/).  Pork chops I swear as big as my head and so juicy. My stomach starts grumbling and my mouth begins to water just thinking about those chops.
See as big as Texas and was so good that I found myself eating it by hand and nibbling as much as I could off the bone.  Anyone who knows me knows how much I HATE eating meat off the bone so you have to know that is was pretty incredible meat.
