Michael's party

I recently read about someone who'd given a potluck and asked guests to bring a dish with bacon. When I was sending out the evites for Michael's birthday, I realized that would be a great party theme for him.

So yesterday was Bacon-Fest 2008 for Michael's 30th birthday. We had bacon. Bacon dip, bacon-wrapped water chestnuts, bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with blue cheese, bacon pizza, baked beans (with bacon, of course), and chocolate chip/cranberry/bacon cookies. Yes, cookies. With bacon. We also had chocolate mousse, which didn't include any bacon, and turned out to be delicious. Someone also brought a baconless dish, which also disappeared completely...the ever-delicious and famous tomato/mozzarella/basil combo on bread.

I believe that we have had enough bacon for a little while.

Well, at least for a day or two. You don't want Michael to go into "bacon withdrawal". :-D

Sorry I missed it - I'm trying to get Kathy to throw this kind of a part for ME.
