My SS sent me a message telling me to expect a package from Amazon, so I had envisaged the atypical brown amazon parcel.

So when the postie dropped of a blue wrapped package on Saturday, I thought something i'd ordered had arrived. After opening the package and wondering 'when did i order a bacon press?.. wait i don't even know what a bacon press is' it struck me, that this was my SS gift!

After reading the box and realising how awesome this present was, I had to try it. Unfortunately, I was busy on Saturday, so I rushed out to get some fry-up ingredients on Sunday morning and proceeded to cook some fantastic bacon.

The press stops the bacon curling whilst it's frying, and the 'cast iron' nature of it, means it cooks the top whilst the frying pan cooks the bottom resulting in perfectly formed, perfectly cooked bacon!

Thanks to my anonymous secret santa, for the most unusual, and most awesome christmas gift!
