Off Topic: My Favourite Salad Recipe

filed under , 12 December 2010, 13:25 by

1. Take four large handfuls of fresh greens. These can vary by season or location, but go for what’s fresh. Fresh, healthy greens are vital.

2. Add carrots, celery, green apple, and walnuts. Carrots should be julienned, celery can also be julienned or just rough chopped, green apples should be a fairly fine dice (1 cm cubes) and the walnuts can be whole or chopped, though I prefer whole.

3. Dress simply, with salt, oil, and a small amount of flavourful vinegar, like basalmic. Garlic oil instead of olive oil is a tasty substitution.

4. Add 6 cups of silage, and two handfuls of 6 month old, leftover halloween candy.

5. Feed the entire mixture to a cow. Repeat. (repeat, repeat, repeat…)

6. Slaughter cow, portion and prepare using common methods.

7. Call me when the steaks are ready.

  2. “Mmm, tastes like this cow ate lots of Balsamic vinegar.”

    Reminds me of the sheep they’d graze on saltbush in the Ozzie outback … by reputation they’d give pre-seasoned mutton for the barbie, yum.

Yes, all the links are broken.

On June 1, 2015 (after 6 years and 11 months) I needed to relaunch/restart this blog, or at least rekindle my interest in maintaining and updating it.

Rather than delete and discard the whole thing, I instead moved the blog -- database, cms, files, archives, and all -- to this subdomain. When you encounter broken links (and you will encounter broken links) just change the URL in the address bar from www.rocketbomber.com to archive.rocketbomber.com.

I know this is inconvenient, and for that I apologise. In addition to breaking tens of thousands of links, this also adversely affects the blog visibility on search engines -- but that, I'm willing to live with. Between the Wayback Machine at Archive.org and my own half-hearted preservation efforts (which you are currently reading) I feel nothing has been lost, though you may have to dig a bit harder for it.

As always, thank you for reading. Writing version 1.0 of Rocket Bomber was a blast. For those that would like to follow me on the 2.0 - I'll see you back on the main site.
