Yup.  Close enough.

I have an excellent recipe for Ropa Vieja.

Old clothes?

Dirty laundry.  Something like that.

It was shredded beef and peppper.  I use a similar recipe for my chilli.

Ropa sucia would be a "dirty laundry". Viejo(a) means "old" in Espanol.

I don't remember any huevos, but I wasn't  responsible for making it.

I cribbed a recipe for it... 3-4 pounds of beef roast, a couple chipotle peppers and a few tablespoons of adobo sauce, one large julienne'd onion, green, and red pepper.  Slow roast for 8-10 hours, shred, and serve.  It makes good chilli if you dice the peppers and onions, and substitute ground beef.

Sounds good -- when you get a chance, try the breakfast version:

Saute Chorizo in some olive oil, add a small handful of carne seca and diced onions and cook on low for a few minutes until the onion is cooked nicely.  Add a couple of eggs (or egg beaters) and some Tapito salsa.  stir the whole thing while cooking until it is to the consistency you like.

Damn, I'm hungry. I don't have carne seca here, but I have chorizo. 

Snack time!

I just finished off the last of the bbq chicken between slices of English muffin. 

Time to hit the sack.  I got a busy day tomorrow.

The Wake n'Bacon clock cooks a frozen rasher for 10 minutes before the time you need to rise from your slumber.

Designer Matty Sallin says the sizzling sound combined with the classic aroma is enough to wake you.

The user is also welcomed by the almost-instant breakfast of a bacon sandwich in bed.

Mr Sallin altered a regular alarm clock so that instead of a sound going off, two halogen lamps are switched on.

The lamps then take 10 minutes to cook a piece of bacon that was placed inside the clock the night before.

The user can leave some bread and ketchup by the side of their bed to make up the bacon sandwich.

Too late for a Christmas gift, but I'm sure it'll sell.  :-)

I should think so, you wouldn't want to start the day arguing with Mrs Jones over a single bacon sandwich.

Oh yeah, leave pork unrefrigerated for 6-8 hours.  There's an idea!  Why not just stuff a tuna sandwich under the mattress for lunch?

Well, the bacon is cured. And cooking it destroys the critters that grew overnight.

Mayo going overnight without refrigeration, with or without tuna, now THAT'S a recipe for essence de la puke.

And I agree with Flame. Ketchup with bacon? Who came up with THAT one????
