Trick or Treat...

Bacon is always a treat—especially when you have double the bacon! Thanks to Nicole for sharing her Halloween bacon adventures and to Rosa for sending the picture of her neighbor’s dog Gomez. I love this plump, little baked potato... but he needs more bacon bits!!!

How Bacon Bits are Made

Apparently by space invader method. How could I not know this? I think everything is a video game—like fantasy football, which I recently found out is not. Now you can let others know how to make a tasty garnish for their salads & baked potatoes with this t-shirt from shirt.woot! Thanks to Kid Kalig for the link!

Save Bacon Fat, Save the Earth (and the Economy?)


Growing up, my grandmother had a can under the kitchen sink to store grease. I never followed this frugal habit as I never really cook. But this year, I started saving my bacon grease (mainly to bake cookies). This article argues that doing so is an easy way to do your bit for the environment. Maybe you can’t afford a hybrid car or thermal heating system... but you can conserve a natural resource by cooking with your bacon grease! A very tasty sounding potato recipe is provided just to prove that it’s worth your while. If you don’t use it for cooking perhaps you can use it as fuel. The article even claims that saving bacon grease will save the economy:

“Cardiologists will prosper and they will buy the hybrid autos, and install geo-thermal systems thus stimulating the economy. The stock market will recover, the recession will end -- and we will owe it all to bacon grease.”

Sounds good to me!
