Rosemary what's that coming over the hill wrote: "Nah. That's a kind of lawyer."

Yeah. A thick one that smells of eggs.

[Patti (baconater)]

I had bacon and eggs. Dave had chorizo and eggs.

I love how every meal comes with a stack of tortilla and refried beans.

I could quite happily just have the beans and tortilla for my meal.

You know those refried beans you can get in a can? They're rubbish.

Frijoles refritos con grasa de tocino.

When I was a kid, the bacon grease was poured into a jar. It was used to fry the mashed beans. 'Re' means very rather than again in this context. Beans with bacon grease are amazing.

Even beans that were just being cooked for the first time after soaking had an onion and a dollop of bacon grease added.

In my childhood, the fresh tortillas came in a huge basket on the back of a bike; they were still warm (the ones in the middle of the stack) when we got home from school.

We always saved bacon grease and the fat from the Sunday joint. It was used for any other frying during the week - or the dripping was used to spread on our bread. We used to fight over who would have the lovely. brown. tasty. jelly bits.

Bacongeal!

This is quite a baconversation.

Aw, pretty baconventional, really.

I have a baconvection oven.

[Patti (baconater)]

I'm hungry again and it's hours until dinner time.

Thankfully I thought ahead while we were out earlier and bought a couple of pastries.

I haven't mentioned the pastries here?

Tell them, Alicia.

Pan dulce? With your hot chocolate or coffee?

I crave that stuff - and it's so very bad for me to eat carbs like that.

There were bags of Chicharrón at Wal-Mart.

I resisted buying any.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Bags of what?

Otherwise known as pork rinds. Yum.

Baconcordance.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Oh, like pork scratchings? Yumm!!

Chicharrón! It's far better than pork rinds, at least where we got them - with a layer of deep-fried pork under.

Baconsensus.

[Tim]

Alas, I have broken teeth on pork scratchings, so they're pretty much verboten now, unless I get a titanium jaw . . .

[Jane]

No bacontretemps then?

Currently in the Brecon Bacons. It's very hot...

[Tim]

Are they near the Bacon Beacons?
