OOopps..got so excited I forgot to ask..
Did you roll up the bacon and bake it in the oven? Or did you pan fry them (obviously not super crispy) and then roll them?
thanks

I saw this on instuctables.com a while back.  Here's a link for those of you who (like me) have a tough time being crafty without instructions. Plus, the step by step pics are fun.  http://www.instructables.com/id/Bacon-Roses/

It was our first Valentine's Day so we did get each other goofy stuff. Along with this he got a chocolate fish (store bought) and in return I got a roll of peace sign duct tape and a flash drive.

Oh and in case anyone was wondering the leaves are bay leaves. They are NOT edible. They can be used has spices in soups or in this case decoration without harming anyone but they must be taken out before consuming.
