In 1962, author Kathleen Rawlings Buntin and her husband, Carmon, got married for all the right reasons. She liked his eyes, he liked the way she looked in a sweater, and they both liked tacos. In The Pig in the Kitchen, Buntin narrates how she married a modern-day Huckleberry Finn, a man who was perpetually twelve going on forty-two. She tells how she, as a city girl, spent most of her life on a minifarm in Arizona. Sharing stories from twenty years of her life in a veritable petting zoo, Buntin introduces Tanya, the gun-shy bird dog; Dot, the tail-swatting milk cow; Arnold, the pig in the kitchen; and dozens of other animals, domesticated and otherwise. Erma Bombeck once said, There is a thin line that separates laughter and pain, comedy and tragedy, humor and hurt. The Pig in the Kitchen walks that thin line with compassion and grace and a lot more humor than hurt as one family experiences twenty years of love, laughter, and animals.
