Sorry, I see that I have been doing this all wrong. Don’t say I don’t learn. I have now read every other food blog and I see what I should be doing. Lets start again.
I made a salad.
First I took an iceberg lettuce. I broke it up, washing the fragments, carefully removing slugs and returning them to the wild. (Tip – don’t use soap.)
I sliced some carrots with my knife. It hurt them more than it hurt me.
I cut up some capsicums.
I sliced some lebanese cucumbers.
I mixed them together. (Technical term – tossed.)
I threw in some coloured cocktail onions (mmm, food dye), just for a change.
I made my own dressing with lemon and vinegar and the blood of a third world child*. (*No I didn’t but I don’t have any of the exotic herbs everyone else refers to and I felt left out.)
I opened a tin of sliced beetroot and served it separately.
I took lots of pictures of my shitty salad but they did not turn out well. However, that would not stop me adding them if I knew how.
I drank half a bottle of vodka later and vomited everywhere*. That is the picture I really wanted to add. (*No I didn’t. I have never drunk vodka again since a fateful night with a very large Russian when I was young and hadn’t learned I was not invincible. I learned otherwise two hours later.)
Bugger, I didn’t use macaroni. Everybody else uses macaroni.
Yummo, it was nearly as good as germ sausages, and it tasted just like chicken. (Must check microbes – see “Aboot”.)
Isn’t the internet wonderful?

“your writing isn’t nearly as “creative” as you think it is”
is that better?
Coming soon – spaghetti from a tin – ON TOAST!!
