Beginner’s Porridge

Prep-time: 1-2 months

Serves: Almost everyone

Ingredients:

  • 5 buckets of excitement
  • 3½ knife-tips of confusion
  • 1/3 pre-made friends (source at local occupation)
  • A dash of apprehension
  • 10-12 uncertain stares
  • 10-12 confident consensus connoisseurs
  • 7½ political positions

Procedure:

  • Take the 5 buckets of excitement and place them in a circle on the floor, evenly spaced
  • Sprinkle the 3½ knife-tips of confusion in between as you mix the uncertain stares and confident consensus connoisseurs in the middle. These tend to split, so be patient.
  • Add the dash of apprehension just before the mass is properly mixed. Don’t worry – it is meant to look a little off, but it will combine later.
  • Now it is integral that you take the premade friends and distribute them evenly. If these lump together, it is very hard to smooth the porridge in the end.
  • As you stir the mix, slowly drizzle the 7½ political positions into it. This gives it a nice structure and cohesion, making your beginner’s porridge a perfect start to the day!

 

Learner’s Luncheon

Prep-time: 5 months roughly

Serves: Hard to know, but 4 groups of people appr.

Ingredients:

  • Ideas. All of them. Raid the internet, your local community groups, alternative people’s forums etc.
  • A pinch of disagreement
  • ¾ process
  • ¼ outcome
  • A handful of apologies
  • 5 teaspoons of stress
  • Technology
  • A very large pot (may have some holes, try to close these up)
  • 1 reading

Procedure:

  • Take your large pot and place it on a fire lit with technology
  • Bring the ideas to a boil. This process can be messy as they tend to jump in every direction. Put a lid on if necessary.
  • When the ideas have boiled for two weeks or so, add the pinch of disagreement along with the process. Keep on low heat for 5-6 weeks. This part can be a little tiresome – stir the pot occasionally and add the apologies slowly, otherwise leave alone.
  • Now, when the mixture is thick and burning a bit at the bottom, take off the lid and bring to an intense boil while sprinkling the stress in. Add the outcome in one go and take of the heat immediately.
  • Your lunch is ready to eat! Serve in workshops-sized bites.
  • Oh yeah – and the reading. Try to sprinkle it on top if you can.

Midnight Munchies

Prep-time: 2 weeks continuously & 1 day months later

Serves: yet to be determined

Ingredients:

  • A big chunk of missed opportunity
  • A teaspoon of disappointment
  • 5 dl of creative energy
  • 20/20 hindsight
  • A dash of obligation

Procedure:

  • While the ingredients for this dish don’t look very appetizing, the outcome is delicious. Follow these instructions and feed those end-of-year munchies.
  • First off, split all your ingredients into three and repeat the instructions below three times over.
  • Take a small bowl and mix together the missed opportunity, disappointment and hindsight. This will form a hard, black dough in the beginning, but keep kneading and it will become soft and malleable.
  • Make a hole in the centre and pour in the creative energy. The dough will quickly change colour and can be shaped into whatever you wish. Take creative license and form away.
  • Bake the dough for a week or two, spraying obligation into the oven to avoid the dish drying out.
  • Store for a month or two and bring to a public feast!

    Once again, Laerke, I’m completely blown away by your creativity – this is such a unique and adorable way of taking the ideas we’ve talked about this semester, particularly themes of community and co-operation. I absolutely love it and I will certainly be trying these recipes myself xxx
