The Bacon Files

My love of bacon is legendary. Well, not really. But a lot of people know. I just can't fathom why when you've got the choice between bacon, sausage, ham, or bologna, you would choose anything but bacon. It's bacon.

So, how delighted was I to discover that Sobey's had store brand bacon on sale last week, 2 for $6. Very, that's how delighted. So now I've got all this bacon, plus a new digital camera, and a lot of free time until school starts next week. As a result there may be a lot of bacon-themed posts this week.

Today's bacon infused meal is one of my childhood favourites: grilled cheese sandwich with bacon. I was a "fussy eater" as a kid, and often cranky on family vacations when my parents would stop for meals at random roadside restaurants. As time went on it was discovered that provided they chose somewhere that served grilled cheese sandwiches, I was a happy camper. And as everyone knows, bacon makes a good thing even better.



I like to use two slices of processed cheese in a grilled cheese sandwich. So when there is bacon involved, I nestle it between them. Omg, melty greasy goodness.


This is butternut squash soup from a box (not to be confused with Dick in a Box.) I'm pretty sure it's just baby food with some additional spices. Whatevz.


All washed down with Diet Dr. Pepper and that dreamy Ian Hanomansing. Delicious.
