Stapler Suspension
Recently a friend tried to pull the new favorite office prank on a co-worker. But when her prank failed, we decided to come to her rescue since the prank involved a failed recipe.
The inspiration for the prank came from The Office episode when Gareth finds that his stapler has been suspended in "jelly."
The victim of the prank never actually noticed that his stapler had been taken for a weekend away. It wasn't until Monday, when our friend, the prankster, returned to the office looking sheepish and confessed that her stapler Jell-O suspension never really hardened up. Instead of a gently jiggling mass her results were slushy soup, with rust already setting in on the stapler. We felt it was our duty to supply the proper recipe and correct her geling error.
In our test kitchen we've experimented with Jell-O colors, quanities and consistency and have arrived at what we believe to be a superior recipe.
Ingredients:
7 packets of clear Knox geletin
1/2 packet of Jell-O in your favorite color (but choose a different color than the stapler unless you're going for a monotone look)
1 cup of boiling water
1 cup cold water.
Directions:
Combine all packets of geletin in bowl. Add boiling water to geletin. Add cold water. Pour into mold. Insert Stapler.
The geletin will be so rubbery that even after unmolding the stapler will remain blissfully suspended.
