Just in time for the holidays

You all may wonder where the name of my druid came from, Baconette.

Well it's a long story and it goes back to a friend of mine who was a US Naval Corpsman with the Marines as was I. Someday I'll have to delve into why the Marines don't have their own medical personnel, or medical transport vehicles, or chaplains, but that day can't be today. Plus I'm getting off track.

My character used to be named Baconstrip. I love the name and still do, but in transferring servers I found the name was owned by some level 13 undead rogue. So I thought, "If I'm changing my name, why not go for it all?" So Baconstrip had a sex change to go along with the name. Hence, Baconette. Plus, nothing is cooler that a hot female night elf, transforming into a bear/cat to rip your face off.

Now where is this taking us in terms of the title? Hold on, I'm getting there.

See, I have a love for bacon. It accentuates burgers, steaks, and shellfish. Hell it even makes non-salad eating people eat a salad once in a while. It's awesome. Big Bear Butt over at http://www.thebigbear.com/ calls it "meat candy". He even did a post on National Bacon Day, Happy National Bacon Day.

So in killing some time last night waiting for my queue position on KT to wind down, I did a search on bacon and bacon gifts (yeah, I'm that odd). Sure other guys would be googling Christina Hendricks, or setting up their fantasy teams for the end of the season. But not me. I had to find some obscure thing to look up and I have to say, I found it. Here are some of the best bacon gifts,  Gifts for bacon lovers .

I have to say the bacon flavored floss and toothpicks are great. I could even see a bacon scented air freshner in my truck. But I'm not too sure I could do the bacon scented soap. I may never get my dog to leave me alone.

Until later, may your Christmas be safe, fun, and full of bacon.
