In the Race

Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in the Red Queen's Race...

I'll Stick To Plain Milk Chocolate

My son and his wife brew their own beer.  Last night they introduced us to a savory beer flavored with sage, and another one that they asked me to smell and guess what it was before I sipped it.  The aroma was familiar, but I couldn’t quite pick it up.  When I tasted it, I said, “bacon!”  My son said it was interesting that I said that, but no, it was a smoked flavored beer.  Smoked malt.  Well, I tasted bacon.  It was alright, not my favorite flavor for a beer.

Maybe bacon can be used in anything....

How about some chocolate covered bacon? 

"It sounds so wrong. But it tastes just right, says Joseph Marini III, a fourth-generation candy maker who is selling the bacon bonbons at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk seaside amusement park.
“It's not just for breakfast any more,” he says with a grin."

This is nothing compared to what they sell battered and fried on a stick at State Fair!

Bryan,

Are you kidding me?  The first time I say a hunk of cheese on a stick I thought that was gross..that was a long time ago...I think that was one of the first things on a stick.  

So, tell me...what's something that was at State Fair worse than chocolate covered bacon?  Unless it was a chocolate covered bug on a stick..I can't imagine.
