Welcome friends to another week of Travels in the South. This week it’s not a highlight of a restaurant. Oh no. It’s a highlight of a product that mom found in the store that me and dad can’t get enough of – can you say yummy!?
Mom has seen commercials on the television for this item – Skippy P.B. Bites – don’t they look awesome? And you know that me and dad are *huge* peanut butter fans. Neither one of us can get enough of the creamy or crunchy stuff. We love both. Mom had a coupon for a bucket of these bites. With the coupon and them being on sale, mom paid right around $1.50. It is a small container but there are lots of creamy balls in it – licks piggy lips. I know that so didn’t sound right. But take my word for it, these are delicious!
AND they come in two different flavors that mom saw at the market. These which are double peanut butter and then they have pretzel peanut butter. Right now, mom has learned something really important about the double peanut butter. Me and dad can be bought with these balls of wonder and bribed to do anything in the Hotel Thompson. Just give us peanut butter!
So the next time you are at the market, look these bad boys up on the peanut butter aisle. Let me know what you think ❤

TODAY IS *MY* DAY!
Normally, I would let me friend Journalist Rocky the Squirrel tell you about important and interesting holidays. But today, well today is *my* day.
I bet you didn’t know that I have an entire holiday to myself? Well – I do!! Today is National Pig Day. I wait all year for my holiday. This is my third one and the party is on!

But you’re probably asking yourself what is national pig day?
“National Pig Day
National Pig Day is an event held annually on March 1 in the United States to celebrate the pig. The holiday celebration was started in 1972 by sisters Ellen Stanley, a teacher in Lubbock, Texas, and Mary Lynne Rave of Beaufort, North Carolina.
According to Rave, the purpose of National Pig Day is “to accord the pig its rightful, though generally unrecognized, place as one of man’s most intellectual and domesticated animals.”
Since today is my day, I get to do what I want… within limitations. I get my favorite foods. I get the extra loving and snuggles. I get a piggy massage. I get my hooves done. Whatever I want – it’s all about pleasing this piggy. To all my fellow pig friends – cash in on this our holiday – enjoy it to the fullest!!
