God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Boasting is the outward form of the inner condition of pride.

My friend told me her mama seasoned this with salt (!) and pepper. I dice
up onions, garlic and sweet and/or hot pepper and add lots of dillweed and
pepper. I tried frying the bacon and pouring off the fat but it wasn't as
wonderful...maybe you and the cholesterol police would prefer it this way.
I've used the turkey bacon with no appreciable diminution of delectibility.
This could be a round-robin recipie...send me your input, as we love this
stuff and are open to suggestions. My name is Benita, my friend's name is
Debbie, and we live in the horribly notorious Cass Corridor in Detroit, MI,
which ain't all that bad. Thank you David @ clam.rutgers, whoever you are,
because my husband and I love all the recipies and love getting e-mail that
isn't junk stuff when we go online.
Please don't add us to any wierd mailing lists. We are already drowning.
