I’m so psyched. I just found my Halloween costume for next year. Should I be so honored with an invite to a costume party, I think I will have to go as bacon. Yes, you heard me: bacon.

I couldn’t agree more with the post that accompanies the photo. I am, for the most part, a shy person but I have no trouble proclaiming my love of bacon to anyone who will listen. (My friend Amy actually had a t-shirt made for me that says, “I love beer, bacon and driving really fast. How am I still single?”) I have been known to eat an entire pound of bacon in one weekend, I kid you not. I make it in the microwave, using one of those special bacon-making trays. I put one paper towel on the tray, then four or five pieces of bacon, then another paper towel. I zap it in the microwave for about 3 ½ minutes until it’s so crispy you can snap it in half.

I may have to throw my own party, just so I can show off this costume. Brilliant!

Did you dress up for Halloween this year? Any clever foodie costume ideas you’d like to share?
