Bacon from 3 hours behind

I will soon be blogging from three hours behind most of my readers.  I know that's weird to think about but I will be on the West Coast in beautiful Brea, Cali.  This will be my first time out of the East Coast time zone (let alone to California) it makes me wonder, does the West Coast love bacon as much as the East Coast?  I am determined to find out the answer this week.

I just realized, if they don't appreciate bacon properly, I'm not sure if I can ever come back here.  I love bacon! I mean, I'm writing a whole blog about it for heavens sake! I wonder if they have different flavors than we do. We, meaning the East Coast... using the royal we of course.  You know how we have maple bacon and flavors like that?  What if they have weird flavor and I don't like it?!?!
That crazy girl sitting in the airport laughing at herself.
HAHA the thought of me NOT liking bacon is laughable.  Thank goodness I didn't laugh at myself in the airport right now.  I would have gotten some funny looks.  You think about it, some college girl wearing sweatpants and a spirit jersey, sitting at an airport gate, on her laptop...laughing at herself. You would be giving me funny looks.
They probably wouldn't let me on the plane.  And they would probably ask me to leave because they would think I'm crazy.

Breakfast Waffle Tacos?

Taco Bell is planning to start serving breakfast in a few weeks.  They have been testing this idea at a number of Taco Bells across the country and finally decided to take this nation wide.

Personally, I'm not sure how I feel about this whole thing.  Taco Bell around here is the place all the drunk people want to and the place all the sober people know how to get to.  So, the whole idea of them serving breakfast is interesting.

If they serve breakfast during the late night too, I think it will be much better than just serving it in the morning.  When you think about it, McDonalds serves breakfast and their normal menu during their late night.  I love the fact I can go to McDonalds and get a cheese burger and a hash brown at 3am.  It's probably the greatest thing ever.

I guess we will all have to wait to see what happens after Taco Bell starts this whole breakfast thing.  For more information about what Taco Bell plans on serving, check out eater.com

Bacon Bowls

Most people have seen the commercial for Bacon Bowls.  The actual name of the new product is Perfect Bacon Bowl.  For those of you who haven't seen the really annoying commercial, you aren't missing much.  Along with bacon bowls, during the commercial, they claim it also makes bread bowls, but we only really care about the bacon.

Perfect Bacon Bowl Ad
What most people don't realize is that you can make bacon bowls at home, without buying the set of two bacon bowls for $10.00 (plus processing and handling for an extra $7.95).

 "BUT WAIT, we will also include a set of two more Perfect Bacon™ Bowls - you just pay a reduced $4.95 P&H! Plus, we will include a bonus Recipe Guide ABSOLUTELY FREE!"  Taken straight from the Perfect Bacon Bowl website, you can almost hear the salesman yelling at you (personally I hear Billy Mays).

You don't need the Perfect Bacon Bowl to make bacon bowls at home.  All you need is your favorite bacon and a muffin pan.  Step-by-step directions with pictures can be found here.

You really don't need any new kitchen gadgets, you just need imagination and maybe Google.
