blodgett was reducing the quantities required in a recipe to 2/5ths of original. this is tedious. fortunately blodgett uses scm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheme_(programming_language)) as its calculator. this makes things less tedious.

> (define (squish amt) (* 2 (/ amt 5))
#

(240 300 80 120)

success!
