in the morning soak your lines in eight cups of fermented apples for a few hours in a side script combine a few spices that you think will season the idioms that you’ve decided on after the lines have soaked awhile pour off the leftover and drink it after which rinse the lines well discarding any foreign objects and debris do not taste it there is still much mingling of flavors to take place before testing now you soak what's left in fresh imported oil from the near east and set the remaining lines in the hot crying sun until you get a nice brown beige this will take awhile and is a good time to preheat your oven so sit down and drink the remaining pour off which I presume is still left set your timer and after an hour or so wake and add the side script mixture with the spices you’ve prepared and set it in the window sill for a medium time make sure the antonyms that are floating out of place are removed & get your sauce ready for a taste treat make sure there are no peeping alley cats watchin’ because during the last two phases there could be hours skimming off the now over inflated adjectives and you may need to do frequent and serious taste tasting at this time there are two levels of tasting to which you should give attention the first is the heat factor consider your audience I think this is a mild piece but my spouse says it's raging use your own imagination and do not listen to any one if you have any run off left now is a good time to use it & give your taster a rest you can always use a few drops later if there is any left to kick the flavor up pay attention to the thickness of the script if you find it too thin stir in a couple of adjectives for instant benefit after which take a moment and scrutinize everything thoroughly then post it and notify me directly .

Look what I found...a recipe. Now if only you had told me all this before I just threw everything into the bowl, hardly stirred and poured it on the paper. I loved this! Made me smile...yup! |

I held my breath through the entire piece, that was some recipe! Great job, and I am sure liking your poetry. The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |
