Pigs as Guests and the House Rules

A humorous reminiscence contrasts two young men labeled pigs for their prodigious appetite. The narrator recalls family meals and describes Hugh and Alex hoovering food from noon to night, raiding leftovers, and feasting late at three am. He notes the boys eat steadily, rarely stopping, while he sits to eat his own meal. The piece ends with a wry wish to raise pigs instead of sons.
