I decided to go without eating meat for a week or so, to force me to eat more vegetables and cleanse my system a little bit. It's going well, except that I keep eating bacon. So I guess I'm not totally successful in my temporary vegetarianism. Unless we can all just agree to call bacon a vegetable. In fact, let's just do that.
The reason I keep eating bacon is BLTs. Tomato season is drawing to a close (*sniff*), so I'm trying to make every last one in my CSA box special by crowning them with bacon and lettuce and enrobing them in crispy, golden bread. But these BLTs are special. They include the usual suspects, but with a special component - a cream cheese spread that will knock your socks off. And the option of a scrambled egg.
Also, I fry the bread in the bacon grease. Don't judge me till you try it.
