The Singing Pig Comes to Life

I'm not sure just how old little Autumn is, but when she came in to have dinner with her family here at The Singing Pig BBQ in Williams, AZ she drew this beautiful picture of a pink little pig with musical notes next to it, showing us her version of The Singing Pig.  We were so surprised that someone so little could draw so well. It just goes to show that everyone is born with specialized gifts, if we can just recognize them.  Thank you Sweet Autumn.

June 1 is Dare Day. Do you Dare?

When : Always June 1st

Dare Day is a day to challenge someone, and to do a dare yourself. It's a day that daredevils truely relish. Today is definitely a call to action. It is not a day for procrastinators or for hesitation.

Dares take all forms and shapes. The type of dare is almost limitless. Whether it is a prank, a challenge to accomplish something, or a personal action (like asking someone out on a date), this is the day to make the dare. And, its the day to do the dare. We do suggest that dares be safe, and of course, legal.......

Daring to the max: To dare someone to do something risky or challenging is one thing. Declaring the "double dog dare" heightens the challenge. The highest degree of challenge is to "triple dog dare" someone. It should not be used lightly, or frequently.

The most important DARE: We believe the most important dare is the D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program.


The Origin of Dare Day:
Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day.
We did discover, that Dare County, England celebrates a Dare Day on the First Saturday in June. It is possible, that this is the origin of the day.

We "double dog" dare you to find more information about this day!
