Never Happened Before

Tonight, I found myself for the second night in a row standing in front of the stove cooking food for Isaac. Tonight it was bacon.

In the past 36 years I have never cooked two nights in a row, mainly because we eat out a lot. Plus usually if I cook once, people wouldn't be up for tasting anything I made two days in a row. But today was culinary history. Isaac gave me the thumbs up and stated my bacon cooking skills are better than mommy. I feel like I have won some type of award. I've decided next time someone comes over I am cooking, bacon strips and french fries.

Here is the recipe, turn on stove to 4. Use heavy cast iron pan. Open new pack of bacon. Place 5 strips of bacon into the pan. Wait til it gets brown and flip to other side. Once brown on both sides and it stops bubbling, remove with fork and place on paper towel on a plate. the paper towel absorbs the grease (not really but it makes you feel better thinking the extra grease is gone, kind of like you're eating healthy greasy bacon.) Repeat the process for as many pices as you want to eat. Be careful as to not scald yourself from popping grease that intermitently erupts from the chaldron greasy delight.

In other news, we made some good progress in the search for a Traveler's Rest location and hope to have that location settled down in the next month.

Tomorrow night is the second core group meeting for the Anderson Campus. If you need info, drop me an email.
