Maybe... Maybe I'm just visualising it all wrong.

Look, suppose I have Mrs Beeton's Grimoire of Cookery. The mundane ability I want to augment is "make dinner". So I use a spell called "soup", a spell called "roast beef", a few about vegetables, and an extra for pudding. Yes, I start them off one at a time, but I'm using "boil carrots" while "roast beef" is still going.

In what way does this picture not match the use of a grimoire?
