Our first official gathering wasn't so much of a gathering, but rather just 3 hungry people cooking whatever was in the fridge/cabinets at 3am. The first thing we made was instant Jell-O pudding - I believe the instructions were: add milk, stir and wait 5 minutes. I guess those 5 minutes proved to be too long, because 3 minutes in we went searching for other options. This is when we found bacon, and who wants to fill up on pudding when there's bacon?
So, here's our attempt at a bacon bowl, step by step:
1. Weave bacon into sheet and place over metal bowl in frying pan. Cover with aluminum foil and cook. (Pudding status: untouched)
2. Remove from pan and cool. (Pudding status: still untouched)
3. Fail. Didn't keep its bowl shape, and was not crispy on the side that was touching the bowl. Note: Use oven next time. We filled it with scrambled eggs, but there is no picture because it didn't look very appetizing. Pretty damn tasty though...bacon makes everything delicious. (Pudding status: probably littered with bacon fat and other crap that was flying around the kitchen as it sat there uncovered for over an hour)
In the end, the bacon bowl didn't turn out, but we got a decent meal out of it. And we did end up eating most of the pudding later on. Let me rephrase that: Laura used threats of violence to make Howie and I eat pudding until we were leaking the once tasty treat from every orifice.
