Long day?

Stressed? Tired?

Need to relax?

How about a warm, quiet, bacon-scented bath....

Escape to bacon-land with No. 18 on my list of ‘1,001 things to do with bacon,’ courtesy of Jill Harness. The salts are easy to make, following Jill’s step by step guide, requiring just a little Epsom salts, borax, liquid smoke and salt pork or bacon (salt pork renders more fat than bacon).

Of course, Jill also sells the salts pre-made (this may be safer for those of us who might eat the pork before the recipe’s finished -- don’t laugh, you know who you are).
