Decadent food porn preview

Can you tell I have too much time on my hands over the holiday weekend. Lots of cooking going on. For this evening, I am planning and appetizer-dessert food porn event, however. A reader sent me this:

That's right, bacon roses. Perfect for Valentine's Day, of course, but surely something for all occasions, as well.

This got me to thinking, so I went looking and sure enough, found this:

Not just bacon roses, but chocolate-dipped bacon roses. Tonight, when Marrying Into Wolves gets here, I plan to attempt to recreate the bacon-chocolate roses. Without the stems, probably, unless I have time to get to a crafts store. Naturally, I'll let you know how it turns out.
