Vark Klub - Stokers
Yes another successful Vark Klub last night at Stokers Arms in Kloof. Eisbein all round and a lot of drinks.
Apparently Stokers Arms in Kloof is under new management. I haven't been there in a while, but it looks like it is gaining in popularity amongst the younger crowds. The place was nearly packed with loads of people eating, drinking and making merry.
We didn't try much on the menu apart from the cheesy garlic roll, the jalepeno poppers (awesome) and the Eisbein.
10 Eisbeins and not much waiting for them either. All huge and very tasty, along with the usual chips, mash and veg. All very good.
Check it out (once their website is working again).

Seaweed that tastes like Bacon
Apparently Oreagon University have discovered a seaweed that tastes just like Bacon.
I can't say I'm convinced of this just yet. I'll reserve my judgment until it becomes mainstream.
Check out the full story here.

Bacon Festival SA Trolls
It seems some trolls have registered the url http://baconfestival.co.za/
The site poses as the home of the Cape Town Bacon Festival, when in reality it is an anti-Pork site.
Loads of images about the atrocities of Pig farming.
I agree, some of this stuff should be seen. We need to be aware that Pigs, and all meat, is not grown in a lovely field. The animal farming methods in this country do have a lot to be desired. But then again, if you know where your Pork comes from, and you know your Pork distributor, and abattoir, and are happy with the way things are done.
Then I have no problem!
And I know my local Pork farmer, distributor and abattoir. And I am happy with their methods.
So go check out Georgies Pork - they use ethical methods!

How to roll like Chris P. Bacon
Awesome Fathers Day present from my boy! The story of Chris P. Bacon!
All about a Pig with no hind legs, taken in by a vet and looked after.
Lots of life lessons for little ones too.
Think my boy is angling for more dad time!

Hand Carved Pig Family
Jacaranda wood hand carved pig family.
Came across this site - http://www.craftersvillage.co.za/
The three piece is beautifully hand carved from Jacaranda wood.
Each hand carved wooden piece will differ slightly from each other, making each carving unique.
Adding loads of fun and character to any room.
Wooden family set with a red felt heart.
And in ZAR it is only R230 - which is around US$20! Bargain!
Go and get it!

Miley Cyrus naked and a Pig
On the cover of a magazine hugging a Pig. And the Pig certainly does not look too happy about being accosted by a naked Miley Cyrus.
I don't know what sort of magazine "Paper" is, but I could check with a very quick Google search. But the truth is I do not care.
So there you have it. A naked Miley Cyrus wrestling with a Pig.

70,000 pounds of bacon spill in Illinois Amtrak crash
Huge tragedy! Luckily no loss if life, or anyone injured, but to loose 70 000 lb of Bacon - now that's devastating!
A train split a Bacon truck in half and spilled Bacon everywhere.
