Requirement 2

I wish we had a king size bed. Maybe a queen size Sleep Number would do it. This coach came pretty much loaded.

Haha! I knew a guy who used to say he was NOT afraid of it at all. He could lay down right beside it and go to sleep!

Ah, but Sudsy, this is the Mutant Place! W. stands for that which is anathema (is it okay to use big words?) to most of us. Therefore, .... Oh wait! I'm not sure I can reveal the Mutant Lexicon till you are a bona fideee mutant w/ all rights & privileges. 🤔I'd better leave that to Barb, who is our Keeper of the Lexicon.

So, a rasher of bacon is a thin slice of bacon, and a rasher of ham is a thin slice of ham. It originally seems to have referred to one slice of meat, but it can also mean two or three slices of fried bacon for breakfast as in "Some fried eggs and a rasher of bacon."Dec 9, 2013


best bet is finding a source of old fashioned smoked without the additives.... and I rarely eat any of that other stuff...pretty much only have a rasher of bacon on Sundays, I'm not too worried... When we do GC's I probably consume the more bacon in a shorter time period, so I'll just be mindful of that and abstain until my average consumption is back at norm. ( Bob is a different story, he eats it maybe 3-4 times as much as I do...) Guess I need to show that to him...Everything in moderation is correct.

Sudsy... go back and read the first few posts, maybe pages... you'll get the gist of what is required to become a bonafide RVMUTANT. it's simple... only 2 things required...you may need to use some imagination if your rig is loaded...

Oh... it's not the smoking or salting of bacon that causes the trouble... it's the additives.

No, no, no, not left out, just haven't yet jumped the hoops to be in! Barb described the hoops, I think. Those 2 very rigorous requirements are that you 1) tell us something your coach does not have that you do not miss, and 2) declare here in these exact words: "The journey is the destination."

Someone more officious, errr, official, than I will then appear ("poof!") & award you your very own Mutant number.*

I know, ya hate me already. Bossy ole biddy, right? Oh, well ... my kids always claimed that my other car was a broom, too. 🙄 I c'n take it. C'mon on in anyway!

Cheers!
_____
*Oh, I almost forgot: Then, lucky you, the previous newbie will pass you the broom & dustpan (or is it a mop?) for cleanup detail. Ask Barb!

I wonder if that green stuff ever came off the handle .... Ask RetroGrandma!
