    Things That Leave Me Scratchin’ My Head {Coffee Talk}

    21 September 2012 / 4 Comments

    1. I love bacon. Goodness knows, I love myself some bacon. My friends and I are constantly discussing the many ways bacon can be used to enhance everything from steak to chocolate but it has never once occurred to any of us to use bacon as currency. But one guy, Josh Sankey,  is traveling across the U.S. on Oscar Meyer’s dime using bacon as currency. Everything he gets from gas to food to lodging is paid for using bacon! Genius! Dude, if you’re ever in Missouri, I’ll trade you one of my hand crocheted scarves for some bacon.

    2 June 2011 / 6 Comments

    Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted a recipe.  I guess ’cause it’s been a long time since I’ve cooked.  My work schedule has turned my culinary life upside down.  But, baby, I’m back.  At least for the summer anyway… So here’s a quick and easy summer pasta dish that my girls and I love (the men folk, not so much, but, you know, sometimes it’s all about the ladies…). 1 lb Spaghetti 1 lb Coarse Black Pepper Bacon 3 eggs Parmesan Cheese Romano Cheese Garlic Salt Olive Oil 1.  Cook the bacon until it’s crispy (crumble) 2.  Season eggs with garlic salt, then scramble 3.  Cook the…
