The Cooks for the day! |
Well today
you are not going to find a great recipe, just a fun story about our bacon epic
failure.
The picture is myself the foodie with this blog, and my son Sammy who
graduated from culinary school and is a pretty good cook. So you might ask
yourself how could they burn the bacon?
Our son, his wife, and our two beautiful
granddaughters came last weekend for a visit, to attend Sammy’s class reunion.
Whenever we
have everybody together it’s a tradition to cook a huge family breakfast. When
we're all together my son and daughter dub our house “The Hotel Monaco” and feel
it’s a must to post our happenings to Facebook.
It was a
beautiful cool, sunny morning here in Western New York. I like to cook the
bacon on a cookie sheet in the oven, I find this so much easier. On this
morning I decided not to use the oven so I wouldn’t heat up the kitchen.
So I
proceeded to line a cookie sheet with tin foil and place the bacon on it. I
took this out to the deck and fired up the grill on the low setting.
Fran was out
there playing with our four grandchildren. I asked her to watch the bacon, and
she did for a while.
While Sammy
and I made the pancakes, eggs, and sausage in the house, Fran was watching the
bacon, at least we all thought so.
Just about the time everything was coming together, Fran yelled from the deck “the bacon is burned”.

The burned bacon! |
The moral of
this story is, don’t put your bacon on the grill and expect your wife to watch
it while she is playing with the grandchildren.
Needless to
say “The Hotel Monaco” got some very bad reviews for the day. I hope you
enjoyed our bacon failure.
As always
thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy!
