And if it's east of Raleigh, it ain't "central" NC.  |
Even if it's only by about 30 miles? It wasn't near the ocean, so I figured it was still pretty central. It was Smithfield. The pig was splayed out on the buffet table with the other "wedding" foods chicken, pasta, etc. An interesting mix of Yankee Italian and southern wedding. It really threw his buddies from U of Mich for a loop when they took him to a bar the night before an impromptu bachelor party only to find that it was a dry county and they had to brown bag their own liquor!
