Yummy, Yummy Bacon and Other Stuff

Who doesn’t want hands that smell like bacon, am I right?!  Up until now, the only way to get that great smokey pork scent on your mitts was to moisturize with leftover bacon fat.  Well my friends I have got some great news for you!

Yup it’s PorkKleen, your very own hand swineitizer. NEW from ThinkGeek (seriously, I have got to get a job there!):

PorkKleen Bacon Scented Hand Sanitizer will give your hands the distinct odeur of crisp, delicious bacon.

I’ve never played The Elder Scrolls, but I just might have to pick up Skyrim…it’s capping everyone’s best list and everything I’ve seen about it looks fantastic.  Then something like this pops up on the interwebs…

Any game that inspires the nerds that play it to create a prop replica of the lead characters helmet made out of the finest ingredient in the world, well, I’ve gotta play!

Or at the very least, blot it with a towel and let it cool first.

Hope everyone had a great day!

I like butter and I can not lie
You other brothers can’t deny
That on a potato or steak
And that melted sauce in your face
You get sprung…

Well that was a fun weekend…typical Indianapolis, beyond excited to get there and then ultimately I leave tired, broke, slightly ill and disappointed. UGH!

That’s enough from me, now back to regularly scheduled programming.

I want to introduce you to a new restaurant in Brooklyn, NY.  by the name of SweetWolf’s. Specifically for this reason:

It’s a bacon fat infused Waygu beef burger, with Jameson soaked sweet chili onions, aged Gouda with a side of duck fat fries.  If you ask me a bargain at $18.

As delicious as that looks most of us do not live near Brooklyn, but you may be near a Red Robin tomorrow and if your name is Jim…

Red Robin teamed up with one of the most well-known Jims, Jim Beam(R)…to create this mouth-watering burger complete with a bourbon-glazed beef patty, applewood smoked bacon, caramelized bourbon onions and melted Swiss cheese on a garlic-butter toasted brioche bun. To celebrate this limited-time burger, Red Robin designated tomorrow as “Jim Day” and any guests who verify their “Jim” status with a photo I.D. on Tuesday, Dec. 6, will have the opportunity to indulge in the Sweet Jim Beam(R) Bacon Swiss Burger’s perfect combination of sweet and savory flavors for free.

So enjoy!  A free bacon burger is a great gift!

For the rest of us not in Brooklyn or names Jim, I guess we are all just plum out of luck (Just like the Spartans chances were at a BCS game after Saturday night. Sorry, had to get that last one in, still stings).

I’m heading to Indianapolis for the weekend to celebrate (and watch from a bar stool somewhere in downtown) my Michigan State Spartans playing (and hopefully WINNING) in the Inaugural Big 10 Championship game.

If you happen to be floating around the city, give me a shout (twitter @mbaird02) and I’ll let you buy me a drink

Have a great weekend everyone!

And her she is…in her dress made of bacon!

Note to Better Half – I expect to see this in my stocking

You could also make this yourself (and with bacon no less…just sayin’)
