This is not really Henry related. However, I would consider it a frickin' disservice to the world and to my readership if I didn't share this anecdote. My dear wife went grocery shopping recently and had clipped a whole mess of coupons. Apparently the deal was such that if you buy a pork loin you get a bunch of free stuff- including about a half gallon of flavorite apple sauce. I guess that was just too much to resist. So she heads on down to the grocery store and proceeds to rounding up all this free stuff she had coupons for and picked up this Hormel pork loin and some other essentials and headed for the register. Well, as it turns out she had picked out the wrong pork loin. The cashier warned that the pork loin mentioned in the advertisement was indeed much larger and asked her if she was really sure she wanted it. Well, the long and the short of this story is that we are now the proud owners of a three foot long pork loin that is roughly the size of a chinese man. Seriously, this thing is HUGE. It barely fits into the freezer sideways.*It should be noted at this time that I personally love pork loins and look forward to figuring out a way to utilize this slab of pig. This was the last thing I expected my daintly, non-meat loving wife to come home with from the grocery store.
