Ow... My heart. >.O

So, I happened upon this little entry on Geekologie not too long ago, and on a whim, decided to give it a go.

Andrew and I went out to Wal Mart and picked up everything necessary to carry this mission out...

Which was, pretty much just bacon and cheese.



First, I made a "carpet of bacon" if you will. The first layer. Mmm, bacon carpet.



Then, the bacon weaving came into play. (Andrew was LOOMing over me with the camera. GET IT? LOOM? WEAVING?)



Mmm, the tastiest tapestry ever.



BACON ATTACK!



All woven and ready to be put in the oven at 400º F for around 15-25 minutes.



Save the rest of your bacon for a totally awesome breakfast. Or just eat it right then.



Aaaaand it's almost done!



Remove bacon from pan.



Of course, blot it with a paper towel to remove excess grease. (We don't want to die of heart attacks immediately, we want to give it SOME time to kick in.)



Why does Panda look so happy? Because it's time for the next step...



CHEESE!



And Andrew had to open it for me. Because I suck.



This is what it's like to be my hand as I'm reaching for the cheese. I know, artsy.



Add a veritable mountain of cheese, and then...



Roll! We're done here!

Needless to say, it was devoured immediately, and we were all pretty sad that we didn't make 7 or more. This seriously is the best thing ever. The only way this could possibly be any better is if we had put jalapeños and hot sauce right there in with the cheese. That would have been heaven.

Well, I feel like I might die. I have the taste of copper in my mouth, and I can't feel my left arm at all!

Stay tuned until next time, when I make a burrito out of bacon spam and chef boyardee!


Until then,

Thorny
