    Canadian bacon

    Most of us like either "Side bacon" or "back bacon". Bacon is only related to ham in that they both come from a pig.. Back bacon is made from the cured and smoked pork tenderloin.

    Canadian bacon

    Are you suggesting that the steaks you mention are all the same cut of meat? The New York is certainly related to the Porterhouse but neither is related to the Salisbury steak or hamburger...

    Canadian bacon

    I once had a neighbor who salt cured and smoked pork tenderloins., by the dozen. The resulting back bacon was second to none. He said that side bacon was no different, I have a smoker and I've cured and smoked only salmon so far,,,,pretty simple really.

    Growing your own tomatoes....

    My wife puts in a few tomato plants every year. This year she put in two plants; a Sweet 100 and cherry tomato. She got the foot high plans from the local nursery. The things grew like weeds....Loads of flowers but no fruit. I'm not any kind of an expert...Any ideas?

    Shepherd's Pie

    By all means, add whatever you like. Green peas are good and so is chopped celery. Chopped mushrooms are good as well. I don't think I've made it rhe same way twice.

    how about them Canucks

    Can the Canucks play worse than they did last night? When I turned the game on it was tied at a goal a piece. It finished off at 4 to 1 for Winnipeg. Vancouver has no offense and the defense was out to lunch. What do we need? A new team, or a new coach?
