Rails - Aug 2006 - Aliasing a table in ActiveRecord.

Assuming I can''t rename my MySQL tables, how would I modify a model so 
that it''s called one thing but references a table of a completely 
different name. For example:

class Recipe < ActiveRecord::Base

	# The actual table is called "FoodInstructions", but I don''t
want to
use that.

end

class HomeController < ApplicationController

	def index

		@Recipe = Recipes.find_all

	end

end

Never mind. I finally figured out how to search for what I needed and I 
found the answer in another post.
