The FastDay Forum

Surely there must be a law prohibiting my neighbour from cooking bacon when Im fasting.

There are many restaurants a block or so west of me, the wind blows from the west.

I understand.

And then there are those who post about bacon....

Touché

I've been attending classes on Monday (fast-day) mornings in a room above a leisure centre cafe... Sometimes the bacon aroma has been torture! Now the idea of it is mouth-watering too!
Just now (5.53am) I've given up on trying to sleep because its sooooo hot and made a cup of tea. How on earth am I supposed to fast when the day is stretching endlessly?!

The smell of bacon is a tough one on fast days! I was fasting yesterday and when I fed my cats their supper I was appalled that even their Whiskas cat food smelled really appetising to me!

Good luck for today Golarne. I too have been awake for ages as it's so hot

On my fast day the other day, both neighbours got their barbies going ... Sausages, steaks ... And BACON!!!

be careful what you wish for! #goodweather

Mmm bacon..... but at least you can have it tomorrow

Oooohhh the smell of bacon you can always almost taste it also how cruel, nearly forgot I fasted yesterday instead that's my lunch sorted!!!
Sorry all Goo Luck for today Sue

Oooohhh hit the back button again Sue

My breakfast this Saturday. I'll make this at home.

Bacon, and toast, ask Ballerina!,

I've noticed since starting this fasting business, I now have a nose like a dog, I'm sure I have been caught sniffing the air on the train...chips, meat pies (lucky I'm a vego so that smells foul), burgers (ditto), cakes being cooked, sniff sniff, is that a biscuit factory sniff sniff. i'll be howling soon ;>)

I have been known to have bacon on a fast if it gets too bad. English smoked middle back isn't to high in calories grilled. Plus it gives masses of flavour for the calories.
My lads cook bacon on fast days, then I could kill them. But we also live near a chocolate biscuit factory, not good when the wind blows right.
