$('ol.steps li').each(function(index) {
    $(this).append('<span class="aside">List item ' + (index + 1) + 
'</span>');
});

Would convert:

<ol class="steps">
    <li>Cut a hole in a box</li>
    <li>Put your junk in that box</li>
    <li>Make her open the box</li>
</ol>

into:

<ol class="steps">
    <li>Cut a hole in a box<span class="aside">List item 1</span></li>
    <li>Put your junk in that box<span class="aside">List item 2</span></li>
    <li>Make her open the box<span class="aside">List item 3</span></li>
</ol>

...I think...

If each li element has an id attribute you can access them by using 
this.id inside the each iterator function.
