Does my computer warranty cover me drooling on the keyboard?

That might kill me if I eat it, but I sure would go happy!!!
 
I saw a feature about it on The Early Show this morning. All I could think was "ick".
 
Okay - I have to confess, although I would NEVER make that, if it was sitting in front of me, I would have to have a thin slice!

I LOVE bacon and sausage.....but I am very careful with how much and what kind I eat.
 
My DH told me about this last night. He wants me to make it for Super Bowl. No freakin' way! At least not until his life insurance is paid up!

My DH is a big bacon fan, and even he said, "That's pretty intense." :D

Ha! You caught me!

Things are going well...just extra busy with both boys and my older step daughter. It seems like I am lucky if I have time to check my email once a day and check on my Facebook account for a minute! Even if I get a second to pop on here, it seems like I just don't have time to post a lot anymore. I sure miss all of you, though!:balloon:
