Oh gods!!!

Now, the recipe I've yet to try only calls for coating the bacon in flour and seasonings, then baking it, since the grease will "fry" the batter itself. It seems a bit healthier, even though it's pretty far from healthy to begin with.

I had a German friend who made #8 all the time. Nasty stuff (even bacon couldn't save it)!

That pickle-bacon recipe got me thinking...

I wonder how a bacon-olive tapenade would taste?

OOoh, now that could be interesting. I say, let's do it!

I got snookered into eating at a Chili's the other day (meeting Mom for lunch and avoiding a drive to Riverside). I'd never been, and I'd never had a desire to go, now I'm mentally cataloging the location of each one I see.

Let me tell you about the bacon cheeseburger.

Nearly 1/2 inch thick sliced bacon, somewhat candied like we had on New Year's Eve. Was there a burger involved? I'm sure there was, but I can't remember it well enough to describe it except to say that it came with the most amazing bacon. The waiter said it was new on the menu. He was very chatty, but not cute enough to put up with for long. My stepfather said he must have had a lot of coffee, I opined that I thought it was crack.

But the burger was good. And they did a very nice bunless version for me. Conjunctions be damned, I will return.

Need to keep note. We have a lot of chains out here in Utah, and knowing where the good items are helps immensely.

I've actually been pleasantly surprised by Chilli's on several occasions. I still wouldn't choose to go there myself, but it's a far less distasteful option than, say, Olive Garden.

Hey now... don't knock the soup and salad lunch. It's about the only thing I get, but it's good at a good price. Nom, nom, nom...

If only they made their Zuppa Toscano with bacon...

Nom, nom.

Chili's burgers are pretty nom-worthy. Even without bacon.
