Jim pranked Dwight in an episode of "The Office" by putting Dwight's office supplies in Jello. This is my ode to the classic prank. :) |
My co-worker was on vacation last week and so I wanted to have a little welcome home present for her too.
Lesson learned: Use a lighter colored jello so the stapler is better seen. Unfortuantely I was thinking what would taste better so I went with Strawberry. |
Because I was new to this, it took me a couple of trys to get it right. First, I found a pot (I didn't have a mold) that would fit the stapler and lined it with plastic wrap so the Jello wouldn't stick.
Then I made the jello per the directions for 7 boxes (the pot held 14 cups of water). Then I threw in an extra box of gelatin in for good measure.
Here is the Jello all made up and chilling in the pot. I realized that I should have waited for the mixture to cool before putting it in the pot becuase the plastic wrap didn't really do what I wanted it to.
So here is take two. I put it in another bowl lined with plastic wrap once the jello juice was completely cooled, but not set.
Once the jello was set a little bit, I put the stapler in. Note: I didn't actually use my co-workers' stapler. I used my stapler that I had at my house, that way I didn't destroy office property. They just won't know it until I return the real stapler. ;)
Oooooooooh, Pretty!
Melissa loved her "surprise"! And so did the rest of the office. :) We laughed about it all day.
Now we just need cool whip so we can eat the jello. And get the stapler out.
update:
Melissa took out the stapler. And we ate the Jello with cool-whip. :) And then Melissa realized that it wasn't even her stapler in the jello. She thought that was the funniest part.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
