You will need the following items, depending on what you plan on doing with the orange:
1. Oranges, lots of them in case you are hungry or if you mess it up.
2. Two bowls, one to peel them over and one to put them in. It’s important to peel them over a bowl because when you screw up and smash it (accidentally) you at least can drink its sweet sweet magic juice. —Mike Rubino —How to Peel an Orange (Tranquility Lost)
I’ve always felt that oranges were a lot of bother.
A great example of creative writing that riffs on the technical genre of instructions.Similar:

Amanda, yes I finally did put a face to Mike’s name.
Neha, I suppose instruction writing is really a subgenre of technical writing.
I didn’t know instruction writing was a genre. I would’ve had it at my conference.
Mike does have a way of keeping his audience reading; he makes the most mundane topics hilariously poetic. I love his style. Did you get to meet him at the Setonian party?
