  • Retro gaming brings a feeling of nostalgia for most that are into it. My video game life started off on an Atari 2600, so playing old games from my childhood is fun and a reminder of easier times. That being said NES provides a bunch of pick up and play fun games. Here is a short list of fun games to play.

    Mike Tyson’s punch out
    Mega Man series- Mega Man 2 has the most banger soundtrack.
    R-Type
    Alpha mission
    RC Pro Am
    Ironman Ivan Stewart’s Off-road
    Super sprint
    Double Dragon

    *Edit formatting (thanks CrayonRosary)

    These should provide a bunch of different play types and genres to figure out what types of games scratch your itch.


  • I hate “recipe websites” that bury the instructions in unrelated bodies of text. Enjoy.

    “Making vegetable stock

    Get three large carrots, an onion, two leeks, and a bulb of fennel. Peel the carrots and onion; discard all but the white and light-green part of the leeks. Wash the leeks and fennel. Chop everything up finely and put it in a big pot with a few glugs of oil.

    Now you’re going to sweeten up these vegetables by cooking them over low heat. You don’t want to brown them—that will make a darker, richer variant of this stock, which should be bright and clean. Add a large three-fingered pinch of salt to draw out the vegetables’ juices and turn the heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about fifteen minutes. Taste an onion. It should be quite sweet.

    Add enough water to cover the vegetables, then add that amount of water twice more. Bring the water to a bare simmer and then let it cook for forty-five minutes.

    Strain the stock. That’s it.”
