For a number of reasons, not the least of which is a lack of venue, RBS will not be holding a full-scale Bacon Day party in 2010. I've already discussed this disappointing news with a number of you die-hards out…

Wow, it is really taking me forever to finish writing about Bacon Day. It was just SUCH a day! We had a number of very generous donors who helped us make this event a success. First and foremost was Rocco…

At the request of our new friends at BaconShot.net, we made bacon shots available to our Bacon Day guests. Seemed like a great idea, since we were serving bacon vodka anyway, so we agreed and we asked people for their…

By far the most popular items at Bacon Day were the sweets. We linked to the recipe Naseem used for Bacon Caramels, which were amazing. Although I have not traditionally been a fan of mixing my sweets and savories, I…

So I met these two great girls at Bacon Day, Jennifer and Lauren, and we talked a bit about theatre and whatnot. I was super impressed that they drove all the way from Los Angeles for the event, and very…

What can I say about International Bacon Day 2009? It was so fun. It was muy delicioso! I am too exhausted to really even think about it. I CAN tell you that no fewer than 43 pounds of bacon…

So you're all familiar with my experiments in making Bacon Bourbon. I did it a few times and although it was alright, it wasn't exactly addicting. Although I never did make a bacon maple Manhattan, which is still on my…

I don't know about you, but I'm in love with the logo designs for Bacon Day '09. And now, whether you're planning to attend Bacon Day or not, you can get your very own Bacon Day gear. From t-shirts to…

I've been thinking all week, and I decided I just don't have much bacon news to report from across the pond. Although we did enjoy the bacon turnovers in England a great deal, I can't find a photo of them...Naseem probably…

I promise today is my last day posting about Bacon Day 2008, even though it's worth talking about for another week. We were fortunate at the last minute to get a "swag sponsor" by way of BaconFreak.com. Not only did…

Chrissy & Smiley: Two people you cannot help but love. These friends (and avid readers) brought their own special bacon tribute to the party...a tribute to the king of all bacon lovers himself: His Holy Elvis. As seen in this…

So I thought I would give Bacon Bourbon another try, because it absolutely had to be shared on Bacon Day. I had high hopes as I was using my favorite bourbon this time, Maker's Mark. It has a warm, slightly…

Bacon Day gave us a great excuse to try and share some of the recipes we've talked about on this site. The first, which I believe may be entirely original to Royal Bacon Society, was the Bacondoodle. It began with…

Okay, so it was our first Bacon Day ever. That doesn't make it any less spectacular. The Royal Bacon Society hosted a backyard party that will take me a good week to fully cover. It was a ton of fun…

Is there a world-record for the longest strip of bacon? I certainly couldn't find one on the Guinness Book website, but I think we may have found the solution to that. This Flickr entry, from a mysterious man called Masta,…

Labor Day weekend is fast approaching...kids are getting ready for another school year, parents are thanking heaven that summer is finally over, and we're all planning our BBQ menus. For an added bonus, Saturday, August 30 is International Bacon Day!…
