Add one large stone.
Ask your immediate neighbors to bring over a carrot or a potato, if possible.
Season with bitterroot and a gathering of tears.
Turn down to simmer and serve sparingly so as to last the next four years.
2b. If Barack Obama wins:
Invite everyone within shouting distance and tell them to bring all that they can carry of the manna from heaven that will have rained down upon us in such profusion.
