Because some things are just that important.

You may remember a couple months back when I did a little experiment with pans. I wanted to find the best and hence bought several different kinds to try out for a week before deciding which I really, really liked and wanted to keep and buy more of. Read about the winner HERE. Read about our recent conversation below.

Keep in mind, I am a lover of gadgets — kitchen, craft or otherwise — while my husband is a lover of open-spaces, empty shelves and versatile tools.

~~~~~

Rick: “I thought you hated this pan.”

Me: “I do.”

Rick: “Then why do we still have it?”

Me: “Because I like the way it cooks bacon.”

Rick: “We have an entire cabinet full of pans, but we keep this huge one, which you hate, just for bacon?”

Me: “Yes.”

Rick: “I have no problem with that.”

Could it be that the key to a healthy marriage is an equal love of bacon?

  2. Oh yes, bacon smooths over many difficulties.
    Praying for a big kitchen for you for all you gadgets. don’t you like have em stuffed in the basement too? :)

    • I DO have them in the basement too! I even keep a few seasonal ones (like the ice cream machine and my veggie griller) in the garage. My obsession borders on illness. :)

  3. I love it! The secret of a successful marriage! Thanks for the laugh!

  4. Yes…I am fairly convinced that that IS the secret to a happy marriage! :-)
