Very cute. Your bean recipe looks delicious. I'm looking forward to trying it, probably next fall when the weather cools back down. The hint about freezing the bacon is a good one; I do that, too, and then use a large knife to slice it. Thanks, Kath! P.S. I couldn't see how to comment on your site.
