6. What kind of container should I store bacon fat in? |
In my earlier post, I suggested using an aluminum can (cleaned out, of course). This was a little misleading of me – I think that would be a good way to store bacon fat, but not the way I have been. Though, as you can see from this picture, my storage system hasn’t worked out perfectly. I use a thick plastic container,... |
It could have been a lot worse – if you pour fat that is too hot into a glass jar, the glass may shatter. Yikes. I think I will be sticking with my plastic (well-fitting lid, no fear of shattering), but I’m going to watch the fat’s temperature more carefully from now on. Reading various online forums, I’ve come to the ... |
7. Where should I store bacon fat? |
And now we’ve come full circle to the motivation for this FAQ in the first place. I said I stored my bacon fat in the freezer and was called out on this because the fat gets really, really pretty solid, which means I’m less likely to use it. Michael, my friend and a cook I respect, said he keeps his bacon fat on his st... |
Almost. I can’t quite handle the idea of keeping the bacon fat right there on the stovetop, even if it were filtered (in which case it is actually supposed to be shelf-stable). Most people I ran across in CHOW forums or otherwise couldn’t handle it either (though most of them cited their Southern grandmothers who keep ... |
8. How long will bacon fat keep? |
I have had mine since about September, so that’s six months now, in the freezer. I’m not sure about in the fridge or shelf. Basically, you just keep adding rendered bacon fat to the same jar – I’m not sure if it mixes somewhat or just striates. White bacon fat is great. Beige bacon fat (what I have now) is fine. When y... |
9. Now that I have all this bacon fat, what do I do with it? |
As I’ve learned since my comeuppance, there are myriad uses for bacon fat. Basically, you can use it the way you would olive oil or butter to sauté – it will just have a smokier flavor. You can cut it into pastry or biscuits (as Toby suggested in the comments on the freezer post). At this point, I have a lot of bacon f... |
10. Can we talk about the fact that this already has a Wikipedia page? |
So it’s not bacon fat, exactly. Still, crazy! Next project after Bacon Fat Spice Cookies. |
With thanks to Jennifer McLagan’s Fat: An Appreciation of a Misunderstood Ingredient, With Recipes, Simply Recipes’ explanation of Rendering Bacon Fat, and the hundreds and hundreds of people who (surprisingly or not so surprisingly) have contributed to forums on the various aspects of this apparently tricky subject. |
Oh my god! Biscuits! Of course! Now I know what to do with my two bowls of fat in the fridge. Backfat though I think, since it’s from the shoulder…so maybe not so nice and smokey. |
I have often used bacon in recipes merely because I wanted the sauteed veggies to have that bacon-y flavor, never did it occur to me that I could use the bacon fat in my freezer! Thank you so much!! |
Mmm! I use bacon fat to roast potatoes, and it results in a better crisp on the cut sides than using olive oil. |
Wow. What a great post! Thanks for doing all this great research. |
I’ve never had my fat turn brown, but I certainly would toss it if it did. |
I wanted to put in an extra plug for Jennifer McLagan’s book. It is AWESOME. Love the recipe for lamb ribs with flageolet beans! |
From time to time I think you thinking how can I insert the wallpaper on the fances in the room. Although that case looks to you to be much more complex than colouring the walls, in fact, it shouldn't take a way more hours and care. |
Rising percentage of people contemporarily tend to look for an occasion in terms of cooperation with specialists in the topic of interior design. It is proved by the fact that due to support of this kind experts we are likely to be considerably more likely to organize our house in a good looking way. |
A workplace is a location where works the workforce of the organization and where take places various group meetings, like the conferences with contractors. For these causes, it is worth to manage right destination. |

On Friday, January 25, the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce hosted the 2019 Transportation Summit at the San Marcos Convention Center. |
The event opened with a few words from Chamber President Jason Mock before he introduced this year’s featured speaker, Jim Wimberly of Texas Aviation Partners. Texas Aviation Partners is the company that manages the San Marcos Regional Airport on behalf of the City of San Marcos. |
Wimberly gave a presentation about the airport’s features, which include a Federal Aviation Administration air control tower, fourteen businesses that provide services, such as but no limited to, car rental and fueling, three runways and four hundred acres available of future development. |
Wimberley said the airport averages about 178 takeoffs and landings per day in traffic and is the only airport in Texas with the FAA designation as a reliever airport for two international airports. |
According to the Federal Aviation Administration, reliever airports are airports designated by the FAA to relieve congestion at Commercial Service Airports and to provide improved general aviation access to the overall community. |
When air traffic becomes “congested” at the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and the San Antonio International Airport, planes are diverted to the San Marcos Regional Airport. |
In October 2018, the Texas Department of Transportation’s Aviation Division announced the results of an Economic Impact Study, which reported the San Marcos Regional Airport had increased its contribution to local economy dramatically over the last eight years. |
Wimberley said several projects were in the works at the airport including the expansion of Berry Aviation, the updating of the airport master plan, the “Go Wheels Up! Texas” Concert event to be held in May and a $10 million rehabilitation of the airport’s longest taxiway. |
Following Wimberley’s update, attendees heard from a three-person panel; panelists discussed the transportation issues the region faces and what improvements have been made or could be made as the area’s population grows. |
Panelists included TxDOT Austin District Engineer Terry McCoy, Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority External Affairs Director Dee Anne Heath and San Marcos Director of Engineering Laurie Moyer. |
Mock mediated the discussion and asked questions about congestion, project costs, interagency cooperation, community involvement and the different factors of transportation. |
McCoy said keeping up with the population when it comes to transportation improvements is a challenge, but TxDOT works with partners, such as cities, counties and other organizations to deliver projects reliably and efficiently as well as maintain and operate the system the region or state has already. |
Moyer discussed the work the City of San Marcos has partnered with TxDOT and the processes involved to complete those projects. “I think we all recognize we can’t build roads fast enough for the number of people moving in,” Moyer said. |
According to Moyer,he process with agencies like TxDOT was a good but long process, and the change happening in the community and the population doesn’t stop or slow down while that process is going on. |
When asked about the future, Heath said no one knows exactly what the future will look like, and, “I think technology, innovation is critical.” Heath went on to say when it comes to transportation, experts have to look at things in a non-traditional way. |
Moyer said since people may not know what the future of transportation will look at, it made planning more important than ever. Moyer also noted the important of regularly updating those plans to accommodate new innovative advances and changes in the area. Mock asked McCoy when he thought the improvements to I-35 would... |
While McCoy jokingly said, “It’ll never be finished,” he continued that the state would eventually run out of room to expand I-35 to accommodate the growth of those using it and would have to look at transportation alternatives. |
At Harmony 9 or above, the character’s clothes and belongings do not shift with her. Below that, assume her clothing and immediate possessions shift with her, subsuming into her body in Gauru, Urshul, or Urhan form, or stretching to fit Dalu, whatever makes the most sense for the scene. |

By feeding it other appropriate Spirits. So the problem with Armor Spirits is that Armor doesn't have a Predator to Prey relationship where it is the Predator with something else conceptually, like to say Sadness and Happiness can be said to conceptually devour each other or a Wolf devour Deer or Rabbits naturally.

Spirits of protection and maintenance, of walls and war, of hide and hubris, of fear and fury, of honor and glory, of physical and emotional attachment can all theoretically be subsumed into a spirit of armor with the right background and circumstances; remember that spirits tend to dilute their conceptual purity as th... |
It's more like Chainmail in PCs family has Awakened Spirit of Rank 1 because it's minor family heirloom. Topics Fetish needs Rank 3 spirit in item. Can I make Rank 1 spirit into Rank 3 then, somehow? |

EDIT: Just thought of something that might work instead of Armor Spirits. Also Elemental Spirits of the materials the Armor is made of, as the materials could be said to be consumed in the Armor creating and repairing process. I suppose this is true of most Spirits in the Artificial Choir making Elemental Spirits sort ... |
Fun bit of trivia, one common way to a Spirit to awaken is for something physical which has a slumbering Spirit reflection to have its physical self destroyed. So you could have hunting down armor which is significant enough to have a Spirit reflection, if it is already Awake and has a Rank hunt it down by let the PC's... |
My understanding of your Fetish write up is that the spirit must be of a particular strength to make the changes to the Armor needed based on how sturdy the Armor is, thus measured in the Armor rating it grants. Is that correct? Because that makes sense to me, a less powerful spirit wouldn't be able to have the appropr... |

If the power of the fetish is to grant an armor rating then that rating would depend on its Rank, but if you already have an armour then the rating wouldn't become worse just because you put a low Ranking spirit into it. |
Assuming that our PC have 'family armor' on himself, but Spirit of it is clearly too weak - is there a way to strengthened it's Rank in relatively short time? Awakened Spirits are Rank 1 only, armor I have in mind is Chainmail ( Armor Rating 3/1 ), so would need Rank 3 spirit to power the Fetish. |
Changed to Pale Crusader's drawback in the Fetish rules post. |
The most obvious solution is finding armor whose Spirit has awakened from slumbering into an active Spirit due to its history, and then use the armor's own Spirit to power the Fetish. Likely Armor passed down through the generations with a glorious battle history, possibly for a wolf-blooded family would be idea. That ... |
Alternatively a less story rich option is a Gibbous Lune, which is a spirit of associated with shapeshifting. glory, and change may be appropriate too, especially if the particular spirit has been feeding from the glory from battlefields where many different warriors were fighting in armor under the gibbous moon. I mea... |
Good to know that, maybe use it as alternative plan for creation of Fetish. |
I'd talk with the players OOC and guage if they want seeking the armor to create storylines where they have to choose between taking something meaningful from their own wolf-blooded relatives or raiding the wolf-blooded relatives of another pack, or if they just want the fetish with as little hassle as possible so they... |
Will look into it - but probably they would want to go with little hassle. They are preparing to go for East - i.e. for 'Greece', Byzantine Empire - so they will come across Slavic lands at the dawn of 9th century. I do not assume there will be very much powerful 'modern' ( to the Era ) armors in there. |

I'm not sure the Drawback is a meaningful one; in numerous circumstances, making humans more likely to fail Lunacy rolls is an additional advantage, not a weakness. I'm not completely sure why you've included the Drawback section at all, really. |
Hell, I made an entire Wolf Gift around weaponizing Lunacy and using it to your advantage in the Giftbox thread. Remembering the armour regardless of Lunacy is much more of a drawback, as well as being more thematic and a neat storyhook. |
Where can you hunt on Crafting or Armour spirits? My players have Locus in local Forge of one of them - but they would rather want to stick with their Forge spirits to be in place there. |
I thought that seeing Gauru in Armor would be more scary than seeing just simple Armor. And seeing Urhan or Urshul in Armor also being really weird for humans. So it would be rather Drawback. |
I agree having the armor being memorable regardless of the Lunacy result is an interesting and meaningful drawback, but messing with the Lunacy roll could be advantageous or disadvantageous depending on the intentions of the werewolf wearing it, taking it out of the Drawback category. |
Drawback: Every witness that sees a character wearing this Fetish in their alternate forms will remember and recognize the armor, regardless of Form or result on the Lunacy check. Functionally this makes the armor a sort of Tell for those that would identify the wearer (As per Mortal Mask Numina). This is likely to aff... |

Rather than a spirit related directly to Change as a concept, I'd be inclined towards spirits of crafting, armour or the forge tbh. |

Isn't your player's imperative trying to come up with that? |
Hell, even a water elemental fits, it mutates to match the container. |
Good one, but I look for more. My Vikings players would want some options on creating this Fetish. |
The only problem I have is with – What types of spirits can create Shapeshifting Armor that is changing with Forms of wearer? |
As my problem was not answered by others - maybe I ask politely devs what they thought is on this question. Acrozatarim, if you can, maybe you can point me what are other Spirits of Change than Lunes - to make this Fetish? Well, beside Idigams, of course. |
There's far easier ways to get armor. Get a totem with Strengthen (Pack) to provide it. |
Based on demand from our patients, Dr Charteris performs cosmetic treatments with anti-wrinkle and dermal filling injections. |
What is a cosmetic toxin? |
This is the most popular medical treatment for wrinkles in the upper face, including what is most commonly known as frown lines and crow’s feet. |
“Bunny lines” from wrinkling the nose when smiling or frowning. |
This product* was approved by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2002 for the temporary treatment of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people, and almost 3.3 million procedures were performed in 2005 alone. |
In clinical trials, nearly 90% of men and women surveyed rated the improvement in the appearance of frown lines between their brows as ‘moderate to better’ 1 month after treatment. |
The most likely patients are generally 35 to 55 years and the most common first area is the frown. Because of it’s ability to reduce sweating, people who suffer from Hyperhidrosis, or excessive underarm sweating, may choose to start treatment either in their adult years or in adolescence. |
Treatments usually take around 10 days to achieve the full results and in most cases last for around three to four months. Results can vary from patient to patient. |
Will other people be able to tell that I’ve had this cosmetic treatment? |
Most of our clients say they look more relaxed. |
What is a cosmetic injectable or dermal filler? |
This is the most popular medical treatment for fine lines and wrinkles and for restoring the volume to the mid and lower face. We also use these products to enhance or re-balance facial features such as lips, eyes and cheeks that have been altered with age, accident, surgery or illness. |
A frequent starting point is down-turned corners of the mouth and in younger clients the frequent starting points are lips and cheek enhancements. |
The products* we use are well known and have been deemed predictable and effective in clinical tests and medical groups worldwide. All can be removed with a simple injection if a client is unhappy. |
There are a number of products used for different concerns and have been proven effective in many clinical trials. They are designed to be used under the skin and will plump up the line or crease from beneath. Natural-looking results are achieved because new technology products are soft to the touch. Current techniques... |
Generally both men and women aged 18 to 55 years choose this treatment for wrinkle filling, re-volumising and facial enhancement. |
Results are immediate and last for around 6 to 12 months. If you choose not to repeat the treatment, the area will slowly return to it’s pre-treatment state. |
Most of our clients say they look more relaxed, with a softer appearance. |
