Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Apple Week recipes: Pork and Apple

Pork and apple sure do go well together. I cannot eat a pork chop without a pile of applesauce on the side (and a pile of collards).

The best marriage of pork and apple is the festive Stuffed Crown Roast of Pork. As Sippican would say, it's the shiznit.

Image is of a Cuban-style pig roast (for which just a single apple is required).

I can't eat anything with a face.

This photo makes me think of Ralph, Jack, Piggie, and Simon. What if Golding had put an apple in the mouth of the pig's head on a stick that so transformed the little genius Simon. It would have ruined the story.

oh, good grief. i'm with you, meta.

"Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of a true, wise friend called Piggy."

but what a book.

What a book is right. It should be required reading everywhere.
