Art succeeds in making me hungry.

I can't say I've ever wanted to eat art before...except maybe that time I made a mosaic with potato chips or any time as a kid that I made a volcano out of mashed potatoes. Okay, so my desire to eat art is inversely proportional to said art being made out of a potato product.

Anyways...all that changes today, thanks to CopperTwist from Instructables, who created a DIY Starry Night (a la Van Gogh) out of various types of bacon.  Did we just become best friends?? YUP!

Try it and send me a picture!

Bonus: The chip mosaic I put together in college. I don't make this stuff up!

Athsmatics, Wheeze No More: BaconAir Is Here!

You can eat bacon. You can drink bacon. You can clean with bacon.  You can kill with bacon. And now - you can breathe bacon.

Yes, it's true.  The wonderful J&D's (whose tagline is "Everything Should Taste Like Bacon" - is this love at first sight or what??) has, among other AMAZING BACON products, BACON AIR. 

 

I can't believe they even bother with a description (these things must sell themselves; disappointingly at this time they have a waiting list), but  I appreciate their enthusiasm:

Hungry for bacon but don’t want the calories? Try BaconAir! Competing in a sporting event or spelling bee? Try BaconAir! Vacuuming the house? Try BaconAir! Taking a test? Try BaconAir! Driving a race car or semi-truck? Try BaconAir. If you want to run faster, jump higher, look and feel more attractive or memorize long sequences of numbers – try BaconAir!

I don't know about you, but I'm sold.

Denny's Wins My Heart Back.

I haven't been to a Denny's since my best friend and I were putting together a kick-ass debate for our senior year high school economics class. We were arguing against governmental regulations and restrictions on pornography and we needed somewhere to articulately outline our cause. Denny's was the place. Open all night with free refills on coffee. 

Since then I've heard nothing but horrible things and I've never been back.  Until now, I've never been tempted.

Until now.

According to the Chicago Tribune, Denny's is now hosting a Baconalia! promotion event, which includes - count them - SEVEN dishes all showcasing our loved meat product.

 

The beloved Bacon Maple Sundae.

And if this looks good to you, here's a coupon for buy-one-get-one-free on the new Bacon Maple Sundae.  YOU'RE WELCOME.

Thank you guys at This Is Freaking Ridiculous.

I'll be on the lookout for the bacon snipers.  Mmm. Snipers.

Via Geekologie:

These turtles are so damn cute I just want to bite their heads off first.  Wait a minute -

Those heads are hot dogs!  And I spy cheese dripping out of a crack in the turtle's shell!

What a wonderful invention.  It's pork-on-pork filled with cheese.  I just got dizzy with love.

Seriously, though - I truly appreciate the sheer architectural design of these lil' guys.  I'm not really sure how they were assembled or cooked, but I would love to know.  Mostly so that I can make them myself!  If anyone can figure it out, please let me know. 

And if you can figure out how to weave some ham in there, you're my new best friend.
