The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

I must say, tomorrow may very well be my favorite day of the year. It's National Eat What You Want Day!!! It's a day to forget about all things healthy, and gluttonously devour all those foods you deprive yourself of every other day of the year. And in celebration of National Eat What You Want Day, I've complied a few recipe suggestions that you should find diet-bustingly delicious. Enjoy!

• Duck confit always tops my National Eat What You Want Day menu. It's basically a duck leg that is heavily spiced and then braised for a long period of time in pure duck fat... Yeah... It clogs the arteries just thinking about it, but it sure is tasty. Mmmm.... duck confit... .
  
  
• For those of you who don't have the time to make duck confit, I recommend a couple of those KFC double-downs. You know what I mean? Those sandwiches that replaced fried chicken for bread. Yeah, get a couple of those, they're just about as heart healthy as duck confit. (And since it's National Eat What You Want Day, I would also recommend that you wash down that double-down with some form of eggnog – one of the most calorie-laden drinks ever made!)
  
  
• Also, remember to top everything with a healthy layer of bacon. In fact, instead of thinking of bacon as a delicious breakfast meat, think of it more as... a verb. Don't just roast a chicken, bacon and roast a chicken. Try baconing your stuffed-baked haddock. And serve your dinner guests a deliciously baconed maple pound cake.
  
  
• Today is also a great day to let the kids have some fun in the kitchen. Why not teach them how to make their own chicken nuggets, fish sticks, and Twinkies? They'll get a cooking lesson, and you'll both get to eat some of life's greatest guilty pleasures. It's win, win.
  
  
• And it wouldn't be National Eat What You Want Day without dessert. So make a selection of your favorite desserts. And then, sandwich your serving(s) of dessert between two chocolate chip cookies for the perfect (utensil-free) finale to a great day!
