College has taught me the proper way to begin any important scholarly essay. It goes like this:
According to Wikipedia, "Gravy is a type of sauce, an old traditional English recipe, usually made from the juices that naturally run from meat or vegetables during cooking. Ready made cubes and powders can also be used as a substitute for natural meat or vegetable extracts. Canned gravys are also available. Gravy is commonly served with a roast dinner, Sunday roasts, meatloaf, rice, or with mashed or other popular types of potato dishes." FASCINATING.
You must end your introduction with the word "FASCINATING" or no one will know how important your Wikipedia quote is. It's very important. Are you paying attention? No, you're probably on another tab in Internet Explorer, looking for porn or maybe a wonderful pie recipie (porn). Or maybe how to spell the word "recipie." That's probably not right. Oh well, too lazy to fix that. Anyhoo, back to gravy.
Gravy is a healthy animal byproduct! The internet tells me that there are 38 calories per cup of gravy, and that it is in fact a source of calcium, Vitamin A, and iron. We should just grind up animals and send them to third world nations in the form of gravy. World hunger: fixed! Now on to something more important, like what happens when you run out of ideas for an essay on gravy and Google "gravy disaster."
The answer to that ages-old riddle is that you get an article from the London Independent called "On the gravy train to disaster." Much to my chagrin, it's not about gravy, nor is it about trains. I think it's about rugby, but really I was too lazy to read it.
Okay, I think I'm done here. Really, there's not much to write about gravy. Oh well, I think I'll just post this now... ooh, there's this new thing where you can label your post for easy categorization. It's suggesting "scooters, vacation, fall." Sounds relevant to me! Thanks Blogspot!
