This is one of those things I keep seeing pop up on the Internet in places like Pinterest and my Facebook feed. Since making bacon in the oven turned out so well, I figured I'd try it.

I followed this post about making "Hard-Boiled Eggs in the Oven", though technically they're not boiled. LOL Mine didn't come out quite done in the middle. I think my oven here at the condo runs cool, so next time I'll try it at 350°F instead of the 325°F that I did today. Marcus also complained that they were too hard to peel. I've had that issue with boiling, too, so I need to do a little research to figure out if there is anything I can do about that.

Not sold on this process yet.

I tend to avoid burgers because they're not good for you, but I make an exception for the Bunkhouse Burger served at the Colonial House Restaurant in Rapid City, SD. Two bison patties! Yummy!

I was intrigued by these Reed Avocados that I saw at Whole Foods this morning. These things are HUGE! Since a normal organic avocado there is usually around $2.49, I figured it couldn't hurt to spend a little extra and try one. I thought it would be mostly pit, but was really surprised how much flesh is inside. Too bad they are only available between June & October, depending on supply. Wish I had picked up more than 1 now. Oh, well...hopefully I'll see them again before they're out of season.

Whole Foods has these daily salad specials - today they were offering one that I had never seen there before - Mexican Salad. Had green chilies in it. Tasty!

I've been wanting to try this, but as expensive as organic ice creams are, I only buy them when they are on sale. It was quite good.
