I just received this note from the blog’s Midwest Correspondent, and I had to share it with you…

A birthday is always a wonderful occasion to CELEBRATE BACON! How did Midwest Correspondent get his bacon on? TWO WAYS:

1) A sushi dinner created by my number one son! And what made the sushi gods smile? A BLT sushi roll! Oh YES! On the second round, it became a BLTA…with avocado! Both served with basil aioli…YUM!

And…

2) What better birthday present than THE BACON HUNTER APRON? I can’t wait to get some bacon grease splatters on it!”

It sure looks like everyone treated Midwest Correspondent kindly on his birthday! Remember…the older the violin, the sweeter the music — Happy Birthday, MC!
