Wake up Bacon!
The bacon alarm clock is a cool idea. I know I wake up better smelling bacon or coffee.
-but the bacon is sitting at room temp all night (eeww), and there is the problem of having to want to eat bacon every morning. (ok, not a problem for some)
How about making an Arduino controlled alarm clock that disperses bacon oils by Hacking the Glade Wisp? (p.161 MAKE #16) Just need to extract essential bacon oils that will stay liquid.
