TOTALLY GEEKED!

When someone mentions Lady Gaga the first thing you think of is OUR LGS.

When you have a dream that you log in a 3 am when you can't sleep, see there is no daily, start typing one, check several times before posting to make sure there isn't one. Post it then see that 6 others were posted at the exact same moment! I think the post war is affecting my dreams.

You go to dinner and your DH orders two extra ranch dressings and you begin to laugh.

I've won blue ribbons for both candied bacon and chocolate covered bacon - which proves that Texans just love their bacon - no matter how they get it!!!!!!

 Samples? Recipes?

I bawled like a baby when he died in the second movie.

 Can I just say I love you?

OK! Here goes . . .

Chocolate Covered Bacon
One package THICK bacon one container dipping chocolate discs (found in the fruit section, usually near the berries)
Bake the bacon on a jelly-roll pan in a 350 oven, turning once, for about 10 minutes, or until fully cooked and no longer limp. Drain on paper towels. Melt the chocolate in its container. Move the bacon to wax paper, and pour the chocolate over 2/3 of each strip, leaving just enough uncovered so you can grip it. Turn, and cover the other side. Let sit on the wax paper until the chocolate has hardened. Store upright in the refrigerator, uncovered ends up.



Candied Bacon
One package THICK bacon 4 oz beer 1 cup brown sugar
Mix beer and sugar to make a basting sauce. Bake the bacon on a rack in a jelly-roll pan in a 350 oven, for about 10 min. Baste with sauce, turn, baste other side. Cook another 10 min. Baste both sides. Cook another 10 min. Baste both sides. Let rest on the rack, out of the oven. Baste again.

When I say thick bacon, I mean thicker than the regular packaged bacon marked "thick". You want something really substantial. If the bacon is over-lapping in the packaging, it is probably too thin. If the slices are packaged sort of like a loaf of bread, thats probably thick enough.

GO FOR IT!!!

Let us know how it turns out!

I've had the chocolate covered bacon. I love chocolate and I love bacon, but I did not like them together.

I like to make a coating mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon to put on thick sliced bacon, then bake.

That sounds better than chocolate, actually.

 Where did I miss a brown coat reference?  That does not seem possible.

 My office isn't very geeky. It's sad.  More basic bitches than anything else.

So... has anyone heard anything from/about PBJ? I realize that this may be a touchy question, but I still kind of wonder ... he was kind of my first "friend" back on MM.

 Not a peep as far as I know.

 OMG so true, people think I must be a spy or such because I cannot explain my job due to "rules".

 They are beach towel clips, to clip your towel to the top of the lounge chair so it doesn't fall down.
