Cards or Cats? We expect to see a lot of you in the Yum! Center, or at your favorite sports bar, decked out in red or blue for the basketball game of the year tonight. As for the rest of Christmas week, the highlight is the Red Barn Kitchen (see below) event Thursday.
Big Pig. Start things off Thursday at the Whole Hog Throwdown at the Red Barn Kitchen. Before you go, take a listen to Reed Johnson’s plans for the 300-pound pig (on the podcast link below), which was delivered to the Red Barn by a local farmer.
