Hello friends – Please be sure to mark your calendars with our important dates this month 🙂❤
Shopping Around the World
This month it is scheduled for December 30th – after the holiday so we can all make plans. Since it is the Christmas holidays, this month we will again focus on appetizers, side dishes, salads, soups, main entrees or desserts. What is something that you look forward to once a year at Christmas. I mean yes we can have it throughout the year but having it at Christmas screams the holiday? This gives you a wide variety of foods you can come up with. Fix whatever your dish is, take pictures and post it with recipes and prices on December 30th on your blog. Remember to link back to my blog posting so people can see yours. This is a wonderful way to (1) meet new friends in blogville and (2) get some wonderful recipes. And I’ll admit it. This piggy has been known to visit on these days and lick the computer screen at some of your awesome dishes. I’m just sayin’ – some of pictures look out of this world!!
Bacon’s Show and Tell
To me, what better time of the year to share some embarrassing stories from Christmas. Did you gather as a family for dinner and someone do something hilarious? Did you have a mishap and spill your plate? Go ahead my friends, let’s talk about something funny our humans do or did during their Christmas holidays. I know these stories will be good! Bacon’s Show and Tell is scheduled for December 28th. Remember to do your blog and link back to my blog so we can all see what everyone shares. Thanks my friend – can’t wait for some great stories.
Oh sweet friends. Mom was working on her Christmas cards earlier this month. She finally mailed them all out this past week. She doesn’t know about this one that I snuck into the mix. What do you think? Am I an evil genius or what? This was sent to a random person…. evil snorts with piggy laughter. Oh between us, when you watch the video – does anyone know this kids name? He might be able to help me with that pesky Don Juan here.
Wwaattzz uupp? Hey we all gotta have some fun in life my friend. Take it from me, don’t sweat the small stuff. Turn it around and have fun. Life is WAY too short. Signed Monkey Man
Dear Monkey Man,
Hey, you’ve got the right view in life. I like that. Here’s a Waahhhatt’ss uuupp back at you. Keep cheerful Monkey Man!
Dear Bacon,
My friends are really mean squirrels. We all decided to play hide and go seek in the neighborhood. I jumped up, closed my eyes and began to count nuts to 20 thinking that everyone would be hiding. What I didn’t know was that instead of hiding, they all surrounded me and watched me counting nuts. One of them actually took this picture and has spread it all over the internet – the nerve! What’s a little guy to do my friend? Signed Cheated
Dear Cheated,
One word – Retaliation. I can hook you up with two of the finest – Journalist Rocky the Squirrel and Evil Squirrel here on WordPress. They can help you come up with the best way to get back at those tricky little friends of yours. Hey – it’s all fun and games, right?
Dear Bacon,
I’ve been reading your blogs for sometime now and wanted to tell you how much I appreciate them. You give away some really sound advice and seem very caring. I like that. Sorry for the bag over my head. I’m in the doggy witness protection program so I can’t show my face. I hope you understand. Carry on my friend. Signed Underbagcover
Dear Underbagcover,
Thank you so much my friend for the words. I really do appreciate them. It makes this little piggy feel good that I really get to touch some lives for the better. I have to ask though and I know others are going to think the same thing… what does a dog have to ‘see’ or turn over evidence on to get in the doggy witness protection program? hhhmmm
Dear Bacon,
Yep, it’s me the Hemi… your purr thing at the Hotel Thompson. I know you talk about me and the paw that hits your hiney at times. I thought I would show your friends the size of my hand. Maybe then they will understand why you cry like a little girl when I do it. Meow – Master Hemi
Dear Master Hemi,
Stay away from my computer and room. After my loyal followers see the size of that paw, they will then know what a little bully you are – snort.
❤ Thanks for your submissions friends. Remember Dear Bacon can’t happen without YOU. Please continue to email your letters/pictures ❤
