End of Term Essay Recipe

1 to 2 dozen nouns
3-6 handfuls verbs
3 adjectives
14 cups of prepositions
articles to taste

Place the prepositions in a pot on the stove and set the heat to medium. While the prepositions are warming rub each now with a verb, switching to a new verb once the old one wears out (about every four nouns). Place the verb coated nouns in a bowl. Juice the adjectives over the verb coated nouns and then stir. Add articles to taste. Once the prepositions have reached a boil begin to add the noun mix, lower the heat, and allow the combination to simmer. After 1 to 2 hours remove the pot from the burner and allow to chill. Once chilled, the mixture can be poured into an essay mould. Each batch will enough essay content for about four term papers. Typically, a quadruple batch is sufficient for most masters thesis moulds. No matter which mould size is being used at least one night is required for the mixture to properly set. Garnish with punctuation if desired.

Chef's tips:
1) Modal verbs add a nice piquancy that cannot be replicated by any other type of verb.
2) If making enough for a Ph.D. thesis be sure to add a few extra adjectives and nouns to each batch.
