Ode to a Sandwich

In writing the peanut butter and jelly sandwich instructions it was pretty simple and straight forward. Our table group seemed to be very ambivalent about what part they wanted to write; I did the introduction, Janine did the step-by-step, Jake wrote the conclusion, and Preston was the copy editor. Writing the different parts were pretty easy, thank god for the Internet and email. The time frame was a little tight, we just barely had enough time to get everything done. The only problem that I felt we had was issue of what was the final product that we turned in. Some of the editing that was done I don't believe was necessary and many of the simple things were missed. There was too much focus on changing everything that was already written rather than checking for commas and other grammatical errors. Also, the attitude was not input friendly.
