Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Wash the potatoes then poke holes throughout them with a fork or knife. Place into the oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until fork tender and cooked through. Remove from the oven and let them cool but don't turn off the oven. Make the caramelized onions while the potatoes are baking. Place 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook, stirring often, for 30-45 minutes, or until caramelized and golden brown. Side Note: If the skillet gets dry, add a tablespoon of water or two to prevent the onions from burning. Season with sea salt, to taste then remove from the skillet and set aside. When potatoes are done cooking, allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl; set the empty potatoes halves on a baking sheet. Add cup the cheese, sour cream, bacon, caramelized onions, green onions, butter, sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Mix thoroughly then you can either divide the potato mixture evenly between all eight of the potato skin halves or discard a couple of the halves and make six heaping potato halves.

Food Joke

One afternoon a man came home from work to find total mayhem in his house. His three children were outside, still in their P.J.'s, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers thrown all about the front yard. The door to his wife`s car was open, as was the front door to the house. Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and a throw rug was wadded against one wall. In the front room the TV was blaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, Breakfast food was spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand lay piled up by the back door. He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and other piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried that she might be ill, or worse! He found her.
