Snaffle an onion from the stuffing for TOP SECRET purposes
You will need:
1 onion
Bowl
Small, empty jar
Old-fashioned (empty) ink pen
Writing paper
1 Cut your onion in half and shed a few tears for your lost youth as you squeeze its juice into the bowl.
2 Pour this watery liquid into the jar.
3 Then decant this liquid into your pen, as if it’s ink.
4 Write your TOP SECRET message onto the paper and leave it to dry.
5 When the time comes to reveal your secret to the world, hold it up to heat and your message should magically appear.
*The Simple Things bears no responsibility for any secrets revealed and reputations ruined during this process (IDST – if destroyed still true).*
