Hungry Like The Wolf
Lightyear is an endless source of entertainment. He's just over 60, and he's a delivery driver at work. He stops by between routes at least once a day to chat with us.
Yesterday Lightyear stopped by my desk. "Now Jeff," he said, with one huge finger pointing like he's scolding me, "I'm gonna give you some wisdom, and listen close 'cause this is deep."
"There is an old Polish proverb that says, 'When the wolf is chasing your sleigh, throw him a raisin cookie, but don't stop to bake him a cake.'"
I shared this deep wisdom with icanspell. She brought up two interesting questions. First, What kind of cake do wolves like, anyway? And second, Would a wolf really be happy with a raisin cookie? Wouldn't he be happier with something bacon-ish?
From there, the next logical step was Bacon Cookies. Any fool can see that. And since the discussion happened early in the day, they quickly became Breakfast Bacon Cookies. Then, we talked about what it would take for somebody to actually *buy* such a product.
I dunno... what do you think? Would you buy this product? ;)

P-Ziddy informs me that I only *thought* I was making stuff up... truth is stranger than fiction.

Wow, now all you would need to do is dip that in batter and deep fry it.
Maybe I should open a booth at the next state fair?
Breakfast Bacon Cookies! Now with extra EVOO and sprinkled with bacon salt (http://www.baconsalt.com/)
Actually, P-Ziddy reminded me of other bacony goodness... like bacon bandaids for use if the wolves get a bite in on you instead of the cookie, the ever-popular WWBD (What would bacon do) spinner, and the bacon mints available here: http://www.mcphee.com/categories/meat.html
And to complete the day, I leave you with this bit of bacony goodness.
