Bacon and fruitcakes

Hey.... I don't do recipes.... mostly.  I mean, if I make something totally awesome.... I keep it to myself. However, this past Christmas eve my nephew celebrated the birth of Baby Bacon Jesus by whipping up a slew of bacon-themed appetizers...  This one was awesome.....and I say awesome in a totally awesome way....... So just a little post-yule treat for everyone....  I would have sent some, but I ate 'em.... you have to make your own.

• 12 slices Bacon, cut in half
• 24 dried apricot halves
• 1/2 cup plum jam
• Heat oven to 350 degrees farenheit.
• Wrap 1/2 slice of Bacon around an apricot half, secure with a toothpick.
• Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake 20–25 minutes or until the Bacon is brown & crisp.
• Turn once during baking.
• While the Bacon is cooking mix the jam & soy sauce in a saucepan and cook over low heat until the jam has melted and mixed with the soy sauce.
• Remove from oven and place on paper towels to remove excess grease.
• Serve dipping sauce with the bacon-apricot appetizer

But I would like to send a gift 
Happy Happy...Merry Merry....  for all my Internet-bloggy friends .... I have fruitcake
