Hello Bacon Fans!
It is I – your King – here to wish you a happy and hopefully bacon-filled Saturday! Are you curious about the title of today’s blog? GOOD……………….I’m thinking it might be a good idea to ensure that there is plenty of bacon for all of my loyal subjects (YOU) and my own personal household (ME, MOM, DAD, ME ME ME ME ME ME!) so that we never run short or heaven forbid run out of it in the future.
I was inspired in this idea by a graphic I received from my good pal Mauricio, one of the Kitties Blue at The Cat On My Head. Here it is – you will see why I am planning a garden!
YES! Who knew? My favorite variety too – CRISPY! So I’m going to get to work this afternoon planting……………………I’ve picked out a greenhouse:
I have a garden supervisor hired:
And a staff of helpers!
Oh – and we even have a GARDEN GNOME!!!!!!!!
So what do you think? They will begin planting today. Yes I know it’s not planting season but it’s a special greenhouse and it’s magic – the bacon seeds will produce the best darn crop of crispy bacon you’ve EVER seen!!!!
That greenhouse is great, and you have the staff ready for work. Now you have to wait for the harvest.

My Mom had a greenhouse many years ago – her then husband (#1) built it himself…..2×4’s and huge sheets of plastic – made shelves inside too….it worked GREAT and lasted well after her marriage to #1 ended (!!!) – maybe your Dad could make your Mom one????? Oh wait- what am I saying – that might turn into a DISASSSSTER!

Mauricio is volunteering to be your security, after all he is already director of security for CSU. He says he’d have time to add the greenhouse to his rounds. And as he has never eaten bacon, you won’t have to worry about him tasting.

Excellent! I know I can trust Mauricio to take good care of things especially since HE sent me the seeds in the first place!!!! Tee Hee

There are no rules for growing bacon from seeds. Of course it’s magical and you are just the magician to make it happen, S. And with that kitty gnome watching over it, what could possibly go wrong?

Sammy, we have already written two comments, and the site says it is posting them, but they disappear. Mom was ROTFLHAO when she saw that garden gnome. Mauricio says he’d be happy to work as security guard for you greenhouse. He thinks his job as director of security for CSU makes him qualified, and as he has never had bacon, you shouldn’t have to worry about him tasting the crop. This is absolutely the cutest and funniest post! Glad we could help make it possible. Sending lots of love. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Well I found all three of your comments in spam and promptly told WordPress they were NOT Spam – in fact your posts NEVER have gone to Spam before so what’s up with that??? Let’s blame it on Hermione the Hurricane OK? I’m glad that you liked the post today – I thought it was fun and I owe it all to my BACON SEEDS!!!! Mauricio would make a wonderful security guard for the greenhouse and you’re right – he’s uniquely qualified due to his Scouts experience as Security Director for CSU! Thank you so much for the graphic – it’s SO much fun and it was really especially fun to write a post “around” it!
Love and Hugs, Sammy and Mom
