Heavenly, artery-clogging goodness:

Loved that article, thanks for posting it.

Would definitely love to eat that, too, I'm almost ashamed to admit.

Maybe just a bacon wrapping would be enough for terrines. Wouldn't want to overdo it with those who aren't bacophiles.

Naw, I've decided to go healthy on my terrine choice this year. None of that greasy bacon for me!

I've settled on nice wholesome foie gras as my theme......

Everyone is most welcome, and I'm glad it was so well received. Always happy to help with everyone's coronary health! :mrgreen: And do let me know how it turns out! We grad students here in the Astro Dept are thinking about doing this at our next department picnic. The vegetarians will be so happy! :twisted:

The three major philosophical questions of Woody Allen:

1. Is there life after death?
2. Is there life after birth?
3. Is there life without bacon?


P.S. There is actually plenty of bacon to be had in Israel.

It's actually 2 lbs of bacon and 2 lbs of Italian sausage.
