Hey Bro, I like the new look ( but not the new direction — though I do understand ). Just thought you’d like to know that Warsaw downtown had its first Friday monthly extravaganza yesterday and Celebrations had its famous “Pigs in the Mud” on sale. That is chocolate fudge covered bacon. First I baked thick cut bacon in the oven until nice and crispy then covered it with hot chocolate fudge. Put in the frig overnight. We had our biggest one day fudge sale day in history. My flavor of the month is “Caramel Apple Pie” — a cinnamon graham crust on the bottom with apple flavored fudge, bits of dried spiced apples (homemade), apple pie spice, caramel swirled through the fudge and covered with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. mmmmm good.

My Big Brother. . . Only a nut like him would post a story about Fudge Covered Bacon on a freaking Diabetic Web Site! What he’s doing is taunting me with it. Like you’d do with your buddy who’s “on call” at the fire department and can’t drink: You’d hoist a mug of beer to your mouth, get his attention, then take a big – slow – wonderful swig of it and then tell him with exaggerated expressions how wonderful it was / is. That’s what he’s doing here! He and his wife Joyce (an angel who’d NEVER taunt her diabetic brother-in-law with Fudge Covered Bacon!) own Celebrations Gift Shop and Fudge Factory in Warsaw Indiana (106 E Center St. Warsaw, IN 46580-2840 / ph: 574.269.5683). I’ve had their fudge, and HE knows it. . . . he’s always been mean to me. Feel free to stop in at Celebrations Gift Shop and Fudge Factory in Warsaw Indiana (106 E Center St. Warsaw, IN 46580-2840 / ph: 574.269.5683) and shoplift something. Those non-diabetics out there: Go for the fudge!
