Went to HomeGoods...

Hi everyone! It's so fun to see all of the holiday items out, and I love looking at the nutcrackers!
I happened upon this one, and I'm just not sure what to think...
Is this a good or bad thing for a pig collector?
Obviously, it's worse for the pig!
I can say the sales girl was quite upset that I was taking pictures of it! 
Just a silly random post today. 
Have a happy day:@)

    I think it is funny and quite artistic for sure. It might be good to have that around just to keep your other pigs in line, he he.

    Have a great weekend!

    Love Sherri's comment about keeping other pigs in line. It took me a minute to notice the pig's head. Glad you got the photo!!!

    I think it could go either way. Perhaps one can never have too many pig(head)s.

    I think it's unique! I had to stare at it a minute to find the pig. Then, I did a big blonde "ohhhhhh" and decided that maybe it was best left on the shelf.

    You find the neatest things!

    LOL!
    Re the pic taking...in PB outlet I thought they were going to have me arrested, yet in Villeroy and Boch, way more upscale, the clerk took the plate out so I could get a better picture! Go figure.

    Okay, I know this is a bit odd, but because your picture here is a pig, when I see them now I always think of you and your blog. So...I find this guy really disturbing, sort of like he has my friend's head on a platter!

    Cute!
    Don't you hate it when they don't want you to take pics in stores? I took literally hundreds of pics in stores in NYC last Christmas, before I got stopped! lol Then, I just had to be sneakier!

    What a fun photo and the pig is not a happy guy in this one. The nutcracker looks mean. HA! A great photo op for you.

    Well Lynn, he's anything but boar-ing! We have been collecting nutcrackers all of our married life and give one to each couple for Christmas. Ever with a poor piggy, he's got a lot of character. I've got the baker and the candlestickmaker would love your butcher! Happy November fun friend.

    I had to look at that picture twice too to catch the pig. How funny! I love Home Goods. I've spent far too much time and money in there. I was in there on Saturday too. They sure have the Christmas stuff, don't they? Anything you can think of.
