When we were kids, my dad was an egg fanatic. I was all about the bacon. Now that I'm older, it makes no sense to me that two eggs fill me up more than half a pound of bacon does. And somehow, bacon costs six dollars while eggs are only two.

Bacon has become a special treat and I filter and save every drop of bacon grease for cooking other things. Been studying depression era meals lately and using those recipes. We now buy whole chickens and cut them into the parts ourselves. Same with pork loin... At Sam's a 2.4 foot loin is 20 bucks and cut into chops you get 24 or more. I've got no good answer for coffee though. Definitely it's forcing the wife and I to be creative and learn new things.
