Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
I remember all that candy, FF, and I was born in mid 70s. They still had all that when I was a kid.
Remember the little wax "bottles" of syrup flavored "cola?" You would bite the top off and drink the syrup.
I miss a candy stick that Russell Stover used to put out.It was an assortment,lemon,cinnomin,orange, and they were SO good.
I'm going to bed now. G night.
How did we all grow up with all these things which are now deemed dangerous ?
I remember drinking out of a garden hose as a kid - there were no seatbelts - just mom's arm flinging across you when she had to stop short
To which the answer was "yes. He had polio as a child."
Admittedly the make up, the clothes, the strong Essex accent and the music didn't do much for a persona of wholesome respectability either...
The "Reasons" are just a list, and an impressively eclectic one to my mind, of things to be happy about. Starting with "some of Buddy Holly" - which seems harsh at first sight, but when you reflect on it is fair enough :)
I'm reading online that you can bake in the oven. I have a unique oven pan that has raised grooves that would allow for grease drainage. I think I need to start baking my bacon.
Input welcome.
Noooooooooooooooooooooo..!
Grill back. Sloooooooow fry streaky. Only takes minutes anyway.
If you've got any in the house, that is. Dang.
How thick are the rashers, though (do you call them rashers? The slices?) - you shouldn't need to pre-cook as long as they're not so thick you can't cook them thoroughly without incinerating the outside. The slower you go, the better the fat renders and the crisper the result...
It's no good, I will have to go and buy some tomorrow. See if the nice butcher down the road has any Gloucester Old Spot, which is insanely fat but so delicious - it tastes like you thought you only imagined bacon to taste in your rose-tinted memories of fabulous breakfasts.
Bacon was on sale at store yesterday, bought a thick-sliced 3 lb package, divided and rolled up in pieces of 6 and put in the freezer ... to take out a roll at a time and thaw. There will be bacon cooking in my near future. I had some this morning - it's good.
Toaster oven - I'm going to try that next time. :-) mmmm
I'll try a few different ways, see what's easiest and tastiest. Thanks!
