So she tended the bacon slices with care until they grew brown and crisped and curled at the edges.
This done the dogs were unharnessed and fed, the men standing over the animals with stout sticks to prevent their fighting while they ravenously gulped down the chunks of frozen whale meat. This function completed, a fire was made outside the igloo and tea brewed.
