Can I just say that I'm so happy we live in a world where something called "bacon dressing" exists? I mean...what is this life? The fact that we can douse our salad in hot bacon dressing and call it a meal makes my heart the happiest it's ever been. This takes dressing to a whole new level. We literally use the fat rendered from the bacon as the oil in this dressing. Is that even legal? It's ...

That was me this weekend. On ...

Like a ranch swimming pool with some veggie swimmers. That's a gross visual...apologies. BUT the point remains - they were boring salads. It wasn't until I got ...
