REAL TERRITORY MEN SURELY DON'T MAKE CAKES WITH GOOEY COATINGS ?

Julian Ricci, editor of the NT News, which frequently slings off at southern reporters, saying they are soy milk latte sipping wimps who know nothing about the wild North,won a Darwin Show prize for whipping up a cake ! No doubt those despised southern journos will choke on their lattes laughing when they hear the news.

His recipe was for something called a hummingbird cake. We understand it required a dozen freshly plucked , useless Territory hummingbirds , which taste like bootleather, not like those pampered,southern, plump quails poached from Taronga Zoo . Then the cake was coated with –wait for it -cream cheese icing!

The rough, tough, spit, scratch your testicles in public and tell the Mexicans to piss off back down south Territory image portrayed and supported by the News has obviously undergone a major change. Territorians, it would seem, are now SENSITIVE NEW AGE GUYS, Snags , into CWA cooking contests , no doubt even furtively drinking soy milk lattes while dynamiting streams for barra.

Puff Pastry Tip: Ricci is soon to leave Darwin and take up a new post down south in the very hub of caffe latte territory where cooking recipes and low-cal spicey diatribes agin the nation's head chef are syndicated throughout the crumbling empire.
