February is here, the month of love and for some reason I
cannot get bacon off my mind. It has become a staple in the American diet and
almost in our way of life. Why would you buy a regular burger when you can have
a bacon burger? Chicken no longer has to be simply chicken. Stuff it with some
cheese and wrap it in bacon and now you have a delicious dish masterfully
designed.
I took this idea and made not just brownies, but Bacon Maple
Brownies. They were phenomenal. So I made them again and this time wrote down
the recipe. As I made the second batch I started thinking, why don’t people act
more like bacon? By its self, bacon is an above satisfactory treat. When you
add it to a meal it complements that meal and makes it better. Like bacon, life
is good. So why not make it better by being like bacon to those
around you and in turn surround yourself with people who make you better just
by them being around. Be more like bacon.
