    Too complicated for me .

    I just wrapped 2 pork tenderloins in bacon. They got noticably larger in diameter. Should make them better with the extra layer.

    Sharp, somewhere I posted the story of my first ham sandwich. Yes, all but a chocolate sundae taste better with bacon.

    My sweet tooth surpasses my salt tooth. Except on oatmeal. Can't stand oatmeal with sweet stuff on it. Was raised to eat it with salt. Think I'll make some now.

    Never did use salt on anything. Probably why my blood pressure is normal. I was entertaining a visitor some years ago. Lyle Tuttle was a famous, at that time, tattooer, and he was over my place. I offered him coffee and he said sure. Do you take anything in it I asked ? Nope, I used to drink it with milk, but one day there was no milk and I never drank it with milk again so I wouldn't miss it. This made a lot of sense to me and I've been drinking it black ever since.

    I eat oatmeal every day. Just plain old quaker oats 'old fashioned' but in oatmeal I use 1% milk, blueberries, walnuts and a banana sliced. In the midst of it I take one teaspoon of Carlson's Cod Liver Oil. I don't tape any of this but I've got an open mind on it if anyone has any suggestions .
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Little did I realize that my question about taping the spine of a straight razor would end with photos of two bacon-wrapped pork tenderloins.
