Pork Fried Rice w/ Pineapple




Last night I made a big batch of Pork Fried Rice with Pineapple so today I decided to post my pictures and recipe over at http://goonswithspoons.com the Something Awful Forums Goon run cooking Wiki. This is my first recipe I've contributed to the site but I plan on adding more of my favorite recipes soon.

My recipe is posted here http://goonswithspoons.com/Pork_Fried_Rice_w/_Pineapple_by_Trexid

It turned out really good! I made a few tweaks to the recipe after making it last night which should improve the taste a bit.

I've just gotten into cooking and love trying out new recipes.

Astro City Stick in the Works

So I'm very close to finishing my newest Arcade Stick Project. I've decided to go with a classic 1993 Japanese layout and artwork know as 'Astro City'. It uses retro neon colors like green, pink, and yellow in the theme.

So far I've completed the case and I am currently working on a new original design for the control panel which will hide the wiring underneath the wood paneling of the stick.

I've already got all of my electronics parts and hardware and I am now in the final finishing stages of the stick. I anticipate that the longest part of the project will be the custom redesign of the artwork as I am terrible with Photo shop and Illustrator.

Below is a picture of a person who's completed a similar modification of what looks to be a Hori Real Arcade Pro 3 stick.

I'll definitely post pictures of the finished product once I'm all set. My deadline is July 16th as thats when I will be traveling out to Las Vegas for Evo2k9 - Street Fighter 4 Tournament.

New Blog!

Hi there,

You've found my new Blog. Welcome. I figured that I should start a new one as my last one used WordPress which is much more robust than this but I figure @ blogger.com I can spend more time actually blogging and less time working on the site / themes and fuss.

This is basically a place where I can publish things that I am working, interested or doing currently so that I can easily share with friends. If you find anything on here information or helpful let me know by shooting me an email or posting a comment. All are welcome.

Best Regards,

-Josh
