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 just realized that one of reasons I'm so obsessed with bacon is that my husband is an enabler. He finds more and more ways to use the magical meat in recipes I would never have considered. This week, after…

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…

Somebody please call my roommates, because they won't listen to me. I've been trying to convince them that pigs ears (like horse hooves and other disposable animal parts) are a perfectly natural thing to give to your dog. Seriously, if…

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…

I have to say that when I think of Japanese food, bacon may be the very last thing that comes to mind. Fish eyes, whale blubber, shellfish reproductive organs and dried squid all scream Japan to me. Can anyone tell…

Lately my husband has been extolling the virtues of popcorn as an evening snack over, say, chocolate fudge brownie ice cream. He particularly likes to share a big bowl if we're planning to watch a movie or a marathon session…

Now we travel back in time a year or so to an innovation so wonderful, it's worth seeing again. This ad campaign for heaven knows what is probably responsible for the bacon lunch box. And for this I must give…

In case you're looking for the perfect complement to that BLT Ring you just bought, here's the perfect match. The Breakfast of Champions charm bracelet. This cute wrist adornment pairs bacon with all its favorite partners...eggs, toast, milk, and of…
