For your viewing, if not tasting pleasure (sorry, no scratch'n'sniff on the intarwebs yet!): a little apple pie and even littler bacon cookies on the cooling rack.
I just did the math on all the resources processed today. Sarah and I made three small and two large apple pies and 1 1/2 sheets of bacon cookies. We used:
- about 10 pounds of apples
- 1/2 pound of bacon
- 3 cups of white and brown sugar
- 9 cups of flour
- 7 sticks of butter
- 1 bag of raisins
- 6 egg yolks
- 1 whole egg
- 3 cups of corn flakes
- juice of 6 lemons
- liberal amounts of cinnamon
- about a cup of Calvados
How did the bacon cookies turn out? They sound weird but wonderful ...

That's exactly what they're like: weird but wonderful. The bacon gives them a bit of salt and crunchiness, and the raisins some extra sweetness, and more crunch from the corn flakes. Sarah said it was harmony in the universe. :-)
I think you should bake some.
