Thread: comfort food

    Default comfort food

    ok laugh if you will at this but i was thinking about this as i was cooking up a slab of bacon tonight, what does the smell of sizzling bacon conjure up- to me relaxation and a full belly. i think in a stressful time cooking up some bacon would be calming

    it is what it is

    camping for me......

    it is also something i will cook when i am going to have a big day. i have cooked it on mornings before mountain bike races, big college tests and my wedding.

    i grew up eating health (ier ) breakfast stuff except when camping. when camping, my dad would always wake us up to frying bacon sausage and eggs. always accompanied by a lingering campfire and followed soon by the fresh smell of a river or lake in the morning as we prepared for a long day of fishing. so, i think of camping and preparing for a long day

    enjoy!

    I used to very much enjoy the smell of bacon. About ten years or so ago I decided to stop eating red meat because I gave hard thought about all that artery clogging fat etc. I plan on living a long while.

    Now the smell of greasy bacon cooking (or any other fatty meat) kind of makes me nauseous. I am not saying I would never eat it, especially if that is all there was to eat.

    Now chocolate on the other hand!

    We had "breakfast" for dinner last night. Bacon, scrambled eggs, biscuits and cheese grits. It was great - reminds me of camping as well.

    Blasphemer! Heresy, I say. Better to be smeared with honey and staked atop a fire ant mound for eternity than go one minute without bacon. In the immortal words of Patrick Henry. Give me bacon or give me death! ...paraphrased, of course.
