When my friend sent me a link to a bacon cheese burger, I thought, "So? I eat bacon cheese burgers all the time." I assumed this was just a cheese burger with tons of bacon on it. Or, like, tons…

I once titled a post Bacon Sushi? because I figured...it doesn't exist. I can waste that title because I'll never find real bacon sushi to post about, right? Right?! WRONG! So let me backtrack by saying that my husband and…

Grr's bacon soap experiment (see Wednesday's post) was such a hit with you interwebbers, I thought we ought to give you the tools to make your very own bacon soap! And thanks to all the goofy and talented people who…

So I know I already talked about Bacon Chocolate, a colloidal mixture of high-quality chocolate and bits of yummy bacon. But this is a whole new thing. Full strips of bacon, apparently dipped in fudge. Someone sent me this image,…

Well it has been a long week, and I'm looking forward to relaxing with a plate of hot bacon. Actually, I finally got all the ingredients necessary to try out the bacondaise recipe, so that's the plan for my Saturday…

When I saw this chart, I just had to laugh because IT'S TRUE!! I have had many such revelations in my life. Like the time when my husband (then my 20-year-old boyfriend) and I were walking through the grocery store…

I know I clued you in to the Bacon Tux in time for prom season, but what about the ladies? How will you ever match your date's fragrance and charm? If prom hasn't already happened at your school, this is…

So there you are, wandering the back alleys of Chinatown, minding your own business and looking for illegal fireworks. Never could you guess that in the next shop, you'd find this adorable creature: He seems so innocent, so loving, despite…

Here's a lovely piece of truth from poopbear. See more of Mr. Poopbear's art here, and let this little reminder carry you through the day until you can get home and have some bacon. Sometimes its the only thing makes…

I know this is Brutus' day to post, but he couldn't make it. Something about grandma being in town and boatloads of ham. In his absence, I thought I'd bring you something both animal and bacon related. And what could…

I live in California, a state notorious world-wide for being non-smoking. Anytime we run into a French person (and that could happen anywhere), they guess where we're from when we decline their offer of a cigarette. Whether in Central America…

I'm not sure what this is all about. I'm not sure I want to know. A big thanks to Matt for this bit of random imagery.

A few years back, and rather late in the evening, my husband, our good friend and I discovered that none of us had ever really been to Vegas, other than driving through en route to further destinations. Given the lateness…

There are so many things to love about springtime in Santa Barbara. Warm weather. Long days. The smell of jasmine. Beautiful fruit. Fresh, crisp veggies. One of our favorite spring and summer activities is to fire up the BBQ, no…

Lately I've been trying to determine my specific relationship to food. I love to cook and experiment in the kitchen, but I'm no gourmet. I love to eat, but I don't think I qualify as a "foodie." I think what…
