"I love archaic words, so I love "receipt." Did you know that "receipt" comes from the days when you wouldn't take a cookbook out of your library to the kitchen, because books were precious, and it might get ruined in there, what with the fire and grease and whatnot. Instead, you copied down a "receipt" of the instructions and took that piece of paper to the kitchen."
