The idea of a thread for Bacon came up.
And it's relationship to Life.
May it drift at will.

Quote from: Homer Simpson[strained] You know that feeling you get when a thousand knives of fire are stabbing you in the heart? I'm having that right now...[normal] Ooh, bacon!

I am far more fond of life then bacon.

Bacon has its place. Mmm bacon bits!

I need to try and weave bacons into a pan-sized mat, fry it up, put 3 eggs on it, put the whole thing on a big waffle, and coat delicately with maple syrup.

That explain the "voices in your head' 

Hey now, one of the voices is my cook...she recommended the recipe to me!

Oh, of course when I stop by, there's a thread of delicious madness!

So now I'll tell the story of how my sister took what seemed to be half a cruise ship's supply of bacon. My parents were sleeping in, so my grandparents took us to the ship's brunch buffet. And my sister proceded to fill all of her plate with like 10 pieces of thick sliced bacon. It was ridiculous and my grandparents were fine with it...Until my parents showed up and were angry.

Just ten? It takes at least that many for a decent BLT! 

One of life's simple joys is a bacon sandwich with layers of bacon and slathered with mayo. Since salt is now off my diet they are few and far between these days, but I did have one just the other day

Low salt bacon and low fat mayo and you have a win/win.

But they are synonyms!

It's weird, but I eat the saltiest food and put salt on almost everything, way to much.
My blood work comes back with it right in the middle of the range.
(Mayo,...*shudders* but then cottage cheese and yogurt and sour cream all gross me out)
Bacon with melted cheese on toasted bread. And butter.

It's kinda like Pica Pica!

Life and Bacon?

Both start out long, smooth, soft, and pink, and end up short, wrinkled, shriveled, and brittle.

Pretty much the same thing.

Indeed! But today I ate a very good steak. Ah, well cooked steaks are also magic! And salad is, too. I guess I need to stop eating, or HRT + lots of food = weight!

Actually I believe HRT or no-HRT, "lots of food = weight"
HRT mostly detemines where new fat is formed or where existing it is burned from

I love bacon so much that I let it hang out on my couch.

Skip the mayo - slice up an avocado instead.

Don't know, seems like my metabolism is really slower after beginning HRT... But I eat less and savour more, so I'm okay with that
