In this day and age of technology, the art of making gravy seems to have been lost. The time has come when the grocery store has gravy in jars upon the shelves. It takes far less effort and money to simply make it in a pan at home than most people realize. No special tools or materials required.
Gravy time
One pat of butter,
Whisk with flour in a pan
Stir in broth, gravy’s done
ds106 Assignment #2
For this assignment I incorporated a recipe into a haiku.
avacado with
lemon juice and chopped garlic
that’s guacamole
This assignment asked you to write down a recipe as a Haiku (using the traditional 5/7/5 pattern). The key was not to leave out any important details. As a bonus, you could also include pictures with each step, which I am doing for the sake of visual aid.
So You Want Eggs?
Hot pan on the stove,
Crack the eggs over the heat,
Guess what? You made eggs.
For this assignment, you are asked to create a recipe using haiku.
“Write an entire recipe only in haiku. Stick to the 5/7/5 syllable pattern as much as possible, but don’t leave out any key instructions!”
When I think of recipes, there is one that stands out in my mind – mainly because of how it warped me in my impressionable teens.
This Tool song might have been the first recipe I ever heard. Talk about dark and demented, it really is a recipe for hash brownies. Remember, no eggs!

Making ginger tea
is spicy relaxation
in the afternoon
Water heats until
bubbling in the kettle
it steams wet, humid
Water is poured
cup filled, hot to touch
a saucer helps
Spoonfuls of honey
yes, dissolve in hot waters
add the tea bag now
It’s hard waiting
fifteen minutes is long
no wait, too hot
