While Chris cooked up this for our Easter dinner:
I carved my own ham out on our oversized chalkboard:

(All the while, Greta was chowing down on cheese from the looks of it. Ha!)  I have been getting requests for a pig butcher chart since I did a cow last March.  It took me a year, but he’s here–in all of his bacon/pork/ham glory.

I haven’t done a chalkboard drawing for several months, and the sheer size of the chalkboard took some getting used to again. Lots of stepping back and starting over.  But in all of that, I realized how much I love working with chalk and drawing. And a pig!?  It was the perfect way to dive back in.

For your 11×14 print, head over here.  The first 25 will be signed and number as a limited edition. And don’t forget, today is the last day for free shipping using promo code: EASTERSHIP.

I hope you hammed up your holiday weekend as much as we did!

    Your puns always get me going.

  2. That food looks amazing! And I love the pig drawing, super cute!

  3. Oh wow! That ham looks delicious! I love the pig drawing too! Why are pigs in drawings so cute, but not so in person?

    I’ve been wanting to buy the cow, and now you’ve got the pig….AND you made a set of them together for cheaper. You win my hero for the day!

A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]
