Bacon Advent Calendar

December 1, 2008
By

I’d wanted to feature a new and wonderous form of bacon-o-billia every day of advent, but that wasn’t in the budget. Instead, you get one big post of linky goodness full of a truly frightening amount of bacon. I’m not kidding here.  It made me worry about you goyim. There’s such a thing as too much love for a food. If you’re one of those who truly can’t get enough, stay tuned! In the coming weeks, I’ll bring you real life bacon stocking stuffers for under $10, The 12 Bacons of Christmas, Home Made Bacon Gifts, and possibly a bacon-o-riffic…

Fakin’ Bacon

November 14, 2008

This is the kind of thing I get in my email every day. Bacon lampshades. Bacon bras. Bacon Tiaras. I’m not complaining, mind you. Once a month, I put out a Grocery School Friday Five extolling the weirdness that is America’s freakish love affair with a disgusting fatty meat product. I think my friends get an extra kick out of seeing an observant Jew fake it by reusing the words, “crispy,” “salty,” and “delicious” in every description. I have so darn many bacon links I’m probably putting together a Bacon Advent Calendar. Well, as soon as I find out how…

Friday Five: Kama Sutra Kitchen

October 17, 2008

Once upon a time, my editor told me “ask forgivness, not permission.” Let’s see if he still agrees tomorrow when he reads today’s Friday Five. In addition to using the word penis several dozen times, I asked the world:  … does anyone ever come home from a long day of cramming data into Excel spreadsheets craving a bowl full of suggestive noodles?  Hmm…My boss may make Michael from The Office look like a bastion of sanity and I haven’t had a date since Clinton was president, but I know everything will be better if I can just get a mouth…

Friday Five

June 27, 2008

Today’s Grocery School Friday Five is all about the seductive allure of wearable bacon. Go now. Behold the wonder. Being Jewish, I thought bacon was a smelly, fatty, thin sliced meat. I had NO IDEA of its cult status among hipsters. Really, people? Bacon? Alrighty then. I’ll stoke your lust, you single, well paid advertising darlings! Expect to see more bacony goodness in the future. Bacon Baked Goods. Bacon home decorations. Bacon morphed into forms you never expected. I’m repulsed, yet so fascinated I can’t look away. Tonight, dinner’s all vegetarian.
