She wrote down the instructions and ingredients for her potion. Right. The ingredients, as in front of here, we’re now transcribed in her notebook.

Ok… What was next? With the ingredients in front of her. She made sure to clean her cauldron before beginning and then she added the ashwinder egg to the cauldron. Then she added four tablespoons of horseradish before heating the cauldron with a low flame for… She set her timer …. Five minutes.

She looked around the classroom, watching the others, before refocusing on the task at hand. Right. Time was up.

Lisa juiced a squill bulb and then added it to the cauldron. She made sure to add just the juice (at least a tablespoon worth) before stirring vigorously. While she watched the mix stir, she focused on chopping up the anemone like growth from the Murtlap into the prescribe one inch pieces. Then she heated the mixture on similar low flame. She waited two minutes. As she waited for the timer to go off, she then ground up the Ocamy eggshells. When the timer went off, she put it into the mixture and then looked at her notebook. Lisa then stirred the mixture counterclockwise five times before increasing the heat more to a medium heat.

Once ten minutes were over, she added the powdered rue before stirring vigorously for five straight minutes… She continued to stir, feeling a growing ache in her arm.
SPOILER!!: notebook
Ingredients:
1 Ashwinder egg, whole
4 tablespoons horseradish
1 squill bulb
1 pinch tincture of thyme
3 occamy eggshells
1 pinch of powdered common rue
1 growth from the back of a Murtlap

1. Add Ashwinder egg to a cauldron, then add horseradish and heat with a low flame for 5 minutes. Extinguish flame.
2. Juice a squill bulb, add to the cauldron and stir vigorously. Do NOT add the whole bulb, just the juice (assure at least 1 tablespoon has been juiced)
3. Chop up the anemone-like growth from the back of Murtlap into 1 inch wide pieces, add all to mixture and heat on a low flame for 2 minutes.
4. Add a dash of tincture of thyme and stir slowly for 1 minute.
5. Grind up Occamy eggshells and add to mixture.
6. Stir slowly 5 times counterclockwise then heat the cauldron with a medium flame for 10 minutes.
7. Add a sprinkle of powdered common rue.
8. Stir vigorously for 5 straight minutes (your arm WILL hurt!) then heat the cauldron one last time with a high flame for 5 minutes.
9. Wave wand over potion in a figure of eight and say incantation ‘Felixempra!' Potion should turn gold in color (however it will not develop it's 'metallic' looking texture until further along the brewing process)
