"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Directions:
Trim and clean sprouts and cut in half. Set aside. Fry bacon in a skillet or saucepan over medium heat until crispy. (you can either cut bacon into pieces or leave whole and break into pieces later.) Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Set aside.
Discard all but enough of the bacon grease to coat the bottom of your pan.
Add sprouts to the pan and saute' 3 to 4 minutes over medium heat until bottoms are browned. Add water, about 1 T at a time, along with brown sugar and stir to dissolve sugar. Cover and cook 5 to 8 minutes or until sprouts have softened and the sugar has caramelized.
Add more water throughout as necessary to keep the sprouts from burning.
Taste and adjust sweetness and add bacon pieces back into the pan. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Take off heat and serve.
