New Year's foods

[jethrien]

I don't think I actually posted this year's New Years foods. (For those playing along at home, Chuckro's family has this great tradition that on New Year's Day, everyone gets to pick two foods that they want for dinner. They don't have to be nutritious, they don't have to go with anything else, and no one else has to eat them if they don't want to.)

This year, we had bacon-wrapped shrimp, chocolate Entemman's donuts, chicken biryani, coconut cake, Tollhouse pie, latkes, sushi, bacon chocolate chip cookies, balsamic carmelized onion bread, and Thai chile beef. It was delicious.

I'm sorry. That's revolting and unnatural. We need to keep our desserts segregated(separate but equal) from our bacon fat.

The worst thing is, the bacon fat was my idea. I'm not sure I actually want to eat the resulting cookies, but he was complaining about how they weren't bacon-y enough, and I figured, hey, you can always play with the fats...

I think the bacon fat and the bacon salt may really be a bit too much, but he puts up with my insanities so I try to be tolerant of his.
