Article in English: Retinol increases cell turnover, which can help fade your acne scars faster. Get a prescription cream from your dermatologist or buy a weaker, over-the-counter retinol. It may take a few weeks to see effects. Creams won't really decrease your scarring, but you can use over-the-counter creams to bleach skin that has been darkened by scars, minimizing their appearance. Be sure to use sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher on your scarred area, as well, because scarred and unscarred skin tend to tan differently – scars are less noticeable when they blend in with the color of your surrounding skin. Some people find that rubbing vitamin E oil on their scars reduces their color and appearance. You can try this method by applying vitamin E oil to your scarred area, leaving it for 15-20 minutes, and washing it off with water. Do this regularly and watch for improvement. Wash your chest and pat the area dry. Use a cotton ball to rub fresh lemon juice onto your scarred area. Leave this on for about 10 minutes, then wash it off. This hasn't been scientifically proven to decrease scarring, but doing this weekly may lighten the appearance of scars over time. Lemon juice can make your skin more sensitive, so always wear sunscreen on exposed areas when you're outside. If you have mildly raised scars, you may benefit from using exfoliants made from natural ingredients – similar to a very mild at-home dermabrasion. Try periodically using one of the following natural remedies to see if scars appear smoother or lighter over time:  Mix honey and a little milk to get a paste. Apply this to your scars and leave on for a few minutes before rubbing it off with a soft, clean washcloth in the shower. Mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda with 2 tablespoons of water. Rub this onto your scars in a circular motion and leave it for 2 minutes. Wash it off with fresh, warm water. Preventing acne scars is easier than treating acne scars. See your dermatologist for medications as soon as you start to experience chest acne. You can also try to reduce your...

Slide the hood into place and drive the screws halfway into the cabinet you are affixing the hood to. Push the hood upward to allow it to connect with the ductwork. While the screws are only halfway in, check to make sure the hole in the hood aligns properly with the ductwork. If it doesn't, take the screws out and readjust the position of the hood. Secure the hood firmly to the underside of the cabinets.

Article in English: Reuniting with long lost relatives can be an emotional experience—one in which you can’t predict the outcome. Before you make contact, it’s important to clarify your rationale for wanting to connect.  Do you simply want them to know that you exist? Are you suffering from a terminal illness and seeking closure? Do you lack other family or a solid support system? Has a parent or grandparent recently passed away, prompting this sudden interest? Think long and hard about why you want to do this beforehand. Always keep in the forefront of your mind that this has all been hidden for quite a while, and the door might not be open! It’s also a good idea to anticipate how you expect them to react. Of course, you don’t know them, but perhaps recounting the details of why you were separated in the first place can help you determine how a possible reunion would play out.  For example, if you were the secret love-child of a married man, your introduction to half-siblings might lead to everyone finding out about an instance of infidelity. If your half-siblings are from a wealthy background, they might distrust your motives, assuming you want something from them. In addition, if your half-siblings are young and your biological parent is still married, it may be very upsetting for them to learn that their parent’s marriage consisted of this betrayal. If either of your parents is alive or in your life, talking to them may assist with your decision-making. They may not approve of your desire to connect with your half-siblings, or they may have some insights about your relatives that haven’t been previously shared.  Choose a time when everyone is feeling relaxed, present, and free of distractions and approach the subject. Bring up the topic by saying, “Mom/Dad, I have been thinking about my half-siblings a lot lately. As I grow older, I really have a desire to get to know them. What do you think about that?"  Be prepared for the possibility that your own parent also might not want to open it up.

Article in English: Reupholstering a piece of furniture is an extensive and time-intensive process. If you attempt to do so on a piece of furniture that is poor quality, you'll experience two things: increased difficulty with the process, and an increased likelihood that the furniture won't last long (making your time/money investment pointless). Start out on the right foot by selecting furniture that is high quality with an ugly 'skin'.  Look for furniture that is made of solid wood, not veneer or plywood. Solid wood will maintain its value and last a very long time, while veneers and plywood furniture aren't quality enough to last very long. Check the furniture for any squeaks, noises, or imbalances. Move the furniture around a bit - if it wobbles or makes noises when you do, it's not in fantastic shape and probably isn't worth reupholstering. Look at the overall construction to determine if there is any major damage or problem areas. Nails/screws that are sticking out or missing, broken boards/pieces, or sagging areas may be a sign that the furniture will require more work to fix up than you want to put into it. Although you can technically reupholster furniture with any kind of fabric, most fabrics won't be thick and sturdy enough to last for many years. Look for special upholstering fabric, which is thicker and made to stand against wear-and-tear better than other types of fabric. Keep in mind that the type of furniture you use will depend on the placement of the piece; you can get away with using regular fabric on a piece of furniture that won't be frequently used, but you'll definitely need upholstering fabric for pieces that are used often (like a couch).  Because reupholstering is such a time-consuming process, try to select a fabric that is relatively neutral and will stand the test of time in terms of style. That way, it will fit with your interior design preferences for more time than a bold or trendy fabric choice would. If you get a patterned fabric, try to choose one that won't require you to match specific...

Article in English: Revealing details about yourself beyond run of the mill small talk can create a more intimate bond between the two of you. This could be something as simple as telling him how many siblings you have, that you come from a small town, or that you love jazz music. Disclosing personal details shows you are starting to trust him. If he responds with intimate details of his own, you are both clearly working toward building a more serious relationship.  Be careful not to reveal too much too soon. Telling him more about yourself over a period of time or over several dates can help to grow your mutual attraction to each other. Deeper questions like, "How's your relationship with your mother?" Or "what do you think about kids?" should only be asked after several dates and once you have built up trust and mutual understanding. A good conversation can be a big turn on for a guy, especially if you both talk about things you enjoy or can agree on. The rule of no talk of religion, politics, or money during a date may be outdated. But focusing on topics like your favorite travel destinations or your favorite television shows can be good ways to keep the conversation going and make it enjoyable for both of you.  Finding common ground also shows him you are interested enough to try to find ways to connect with his tastes and preferences. Though you may not agree all the time, working towards a mutual understanding can strengthen your relationship. If you know he is a big sports fan and you are also into sports, ask him: "So, what did you think of last night's game?" Or if you are more interested in pop culture, bring up the latest show you're obsessed with on Netflix, or share your celebrity crushes. Avoid being passive in the conversation or saying “yes” to everything he says. Voicing your opinion shows you have the intelligence to think for yourself and aren’t afraid to be honest. A smart woman who knows what she wants and how to get it will attract men everywhere she goes. If he asks you a direct question, like "What is...

Article in English: Revenge comes from feeling diminished by your aggressor and subsequently, you feel ashamed that you allowed this to happen. Such feelings may cause you to feel angry, leading to your desire to seek revenge.  Emotions are felt physically, so recognizing the physical signs of each emotion can help you get them under control. For example, when you are angry, your blood pressure rises and heat radiates from your shoulders through the back of your head. Your emotions can drive your decision making by creating a deeper connection to each decision. When you are feeling angry, you might make more rash decisions than if you felt happy. Putting your feelings into words can help you come to terms with them and clarify your thoughts. Writing down your feelings can help reduce the intensity of your feelings, and help lessen your deep-seated desire for revenge. If you do not like to write you feelings down on paper, try talking to someone about your emotions. Find a trusted friend or family member and tell them exactly what is going on: how you feel, who was involved, the reasons for wanting revenge, how you think revenge will make you feel, etc... . Go to a quiet room, sit on the floor, close your eyes and focus on taking slow, deep breaths. While you are meditating, try to empty your mind of all negative thoughts and concentrate on positive things in your life. Mediation has been scientifically shown to reduce stress and may be a great coping mechanism for your desires for revenge. It can slow your thoughts and help you feel calm and centered. Your emotions may become overwhelming and difficult to handle. At times like these, try repeating positive affirmations to yourself to remind you that even though you aren’t in control of the situation, you are in control of your response. These are some mantras you could try repeating to yourself:  “Things could be worse.” “I will take charge of my response to this person’s actions.” “I can make it through this.” “This is only temporary.”

Article in English: Reverse osmosis filters can be helpful for getting rid of iron, manganese, salt, fluoride, and lead. If you have tested your well water and the results contained many different minerals alongside iron, reverse osmosis is likely the best option.  Reverse osmosis can also be useful for removing trace amounts of arsenic.  One downside of reverse osmosis filters is that, along with harmful minerals, they can also remove good minerals like calcium from your water supply. For every gallon (3.79 L) of treated water that reverse osmosis filters create, they create 7–9 gallons (26–34 l) of waste water. If you're trying to live a "greener" lifestyle, go for an oxidation filter or water softener instead. Like water softeners, every reverse osmosis filter is installed differently. In some cases, you may be able to install it on your own. Read the instruction manual carefully and, if you find yourself confused, contact a plumber or the company you bought the reverse osmosis filter from. Reverse osmosis filters can be bought online or at many home supply stores. Of all the well water filters available, reverse osmosis filters require the least upkeep. As long as it is installed correctly, it shouldn't need upkeep beyond routine care every 1-2 years. Call a plumber or reverse osmosis filter installation company once a year for maintenance or if you notice a metallic, iron taste to your water again.

Article in English: Reverse stencils work similar to regular stencils, except that you will be putting paint around the shape instead. Here's a list of what you will need:  Cardstock Craft knife Double-sided tape or repositionable spray adhesive Foam roller or paint sponges Acrylic paint or wall paint Paint pan or paint palette Paper towels You can also use template plastic, or blank stencil sheeting as well.  You can find template plastic in the quilting section of a fabric store. You can find blank stencil sheeting in the stencil section of an arts and crafts store. You can also spray the back of each shape with repositionable spray adhesive. You can create a grid or checkered pattern. You can also use a completely random pattern. If you are using shapes of different sizes, consider arranging them in an asymmetric clump. Keep the larger shapes towards the center, and the smaller shapes towards the edges/ends. Don't pour out a whole lot, or the paint will dry out before you can finish using it. You can always pour more paint out into your paint pan or paint palette. If you are painting a large area, consider using wall paint. If you are painting just a small area, any acrylic paint will do.  If you are using a paint roller to apply the paint, you might find a paint pan easier to use. If you are using a small paint sponge, you might find a paint palette easier to work with. This will prevent you from applying too much paint all at once. If you apply too much paint at one time, the paint may not dry or cure properly. It may also end up with a bubbly texture. Because of this, it is much better to apply many thin coats of paint rather than one thick coat. Simply roll the foam paint roller across the entire wall, including your shapes. If you want a softer look, you can gently tap around your shapes with a paint sponge. Wait for the paint to dry, then apply a second coat. If you are taping the paint on with a sponge, you can even use a slightly lighter or darker color. If you remove the shapes after the paint dries, you will risk...

Article in English: Review the assignment sheet at least twice to make sure you fully understand what your instructor expects. If you have questions, ask your instructor as soon as possible so that you aren’t doing your assignment wrong. This will ensure that you get full credit for your work. Your instructor has assigned journaling to help you deepen your understanding of your coursework and to improve your writing skills. Following their instructions will help you best achieve these goals. Including the date helps you keep track of when you wrote an entry. This helps you understand what was happening at your life at the time. Use the date format you’re most comfortable using. For instance, you might write, “July 24, 2019,” “07-24-19,” or “24 July 2019.” While this is optional, it can help you remember what was happening at the time you wrote each entry. This is a big help if you plan to read over your journal in the future. Record the location and time under your date or at the start of the journal entry itself. For instance, you might write “Good Beans Coffee House,” “School,” “Paris,” or “My bedroom” for your location. For the time, you could write the actual time, such as “12:25 p.m.,” or the time of day, like “Early morning.” Using a salutation is totally optional, so feel free to skip it. However, you might try it a few times to see if it helps you get in the mindset to write. Choose a salutation that appeals to you if you want to use one.

Article in English: Review your job description and responsibilities and rate your performance in each area. Being honest about how you are doing will help you determine what areas you need to work on to improve your job performance.  You can rate whether you are ‘exceeding expectations’, ‘meeting expectations’, or ‘need improvement’ in each area. Make a list of strengths and weaknesses in each area. For example, you might put that you’re good at writing reports, but don’t submit them on time. One way to get an idea of how you are performing on the job is to ask your co-workers. Their perceptions of your work can give you an idea of what areas you need to improve in and what areas you are doing well in.  You could ask them to write a few words on a sticky note that describe your work performance and put it in an envelope for that purpose on your desk. For example, you could say, “Would you write a few words about my work on here and put it in the envelope hanging outside my cubicle?” You could also create a brief, anonymous online survey for them to complete. If you are comfortable with it, you could ask for feedback face to face. You might say, “Would you give me some feedback on my work performance?” This might be the most important feedback you can receive. This will let you know how your supervisor thinks you are doing and how they think you can improve your job performance. It will also give insight into what exactly your supervisor is looking for in a great employee.  Most companies have specific times of the year when they evaluate employees. Check with your supervisor to see when your next evaluation is due. You could say, “How long after I have been employed will it be before I am evaluated?” Or, “When do we have our evaluations?” You can always ask your supervisor for informal feedback regarding your work performance or a specific task or assignment. For example, you might ask your boss, “Would you mind meeting with me about how I did on this last report?” Talk to your supervisor about the review and what implications...

Article in English: Review your list of activities to determine which steps are unnecessary.  Delete all unnecessary activities from your list if they are not specific to this particular objective.  It is important to streamline the process and avoid having so many steps that it is overwhelming or confusing to the employees.  If the omitted activity is important to your overall business, consider which goal best benefits from this activity and save it to be part of a separate business process. It is helpful to create a flow chart of the entire process, listing each activity in order and linking it to the next part of the process.  Start with the premiere event leading to your goal.  Draw a circle around this activity. Draw a line to a box and fill that box with the first activity required to work from this premiere event to your goal. When you reach a moment which requires a decision, draw a diamond around the question which must be posed.  Two lines should proceed from this diamond leading to the activity driven by this decision. Link each activity sequentially. Some may run simultaneously through different departments within your business. Culminate in the activity which reaches your goal, and draw a circle around this conclusion. Look at your completed flow chart with a critical eye to see if there are still any remaining activities which could be cut from the process to increase efficiency, quality, or decrease cost. Can the order be rearranged or can the individual processes be improved to accomplish your objective in a better way?  Consider whether any part of your process can be automated. Step back and get an outside eye by sharing the process with your management team. Look at your process from the point of view of the customer and consider ways you could improve their experience and overall satisfaction. This will provide transparent accountability for each step within the process.  Share the flowchart with your employees to clearly communicate the expectations for achieving your objective.

Article in English: Reviewing your notes after class, or later the same day will help you to retain the information much more effectively. You don't need to study them intensely -- just spend 15 to 20 minutes going back over them each night.  Fill in any blanks. Use your review time to fill in any additional information that you remember from the class or lecture. Write a summary. Another effective tool for committing your notes to memory is to summarize the information contained in your notes at the bottom of the page. Test yourself on your understanding of the material by covering up your notes and trying to explain the topic to yourself -- out loud or in your head.  See how many of the important details you can remember, then read the notes again to recap on any information you might have missed. Explain the material to a friend. Teaching or explaining the material to a friend is a good way to test whether you've fully understood the topic and whether your notes deal with the topic comprehensively. You'll really see the benefit of having good notes when it comes to exam time and you have to memorize all of the material. If you have been consistently reviewing your notes for 20 to 30 minutes each night, you'll find the memorization process much easier. Here are some popular memorization techniques you can try:   Line-by-line method: If you have to memorize a chunk of text, one good technique is to read the first line a couple of times, then try to repeat it out loud without looking at the page. Read the second line a couple of times, then try to repeat the first and second line out loud, without looking at the page. Keep going in this fashion until you can repeat the entire chunk of text without looking at the page.  Story method: This method involves turning the information you have to memorize into a simple story that's easy to remember. For example, if you wanted to remember the first three elements in Group one of the periodic table (hydrogen, helium, and lithium) you could use the following story "(H)arriet and (He)nry...

Article in English: Revising is easier if you can take a break from what you have written for a few days. After you return to the paper again, you will have a fresh perspective that should help you to improve the content of your work more easily than if you had attempted to revise it right away. If possible set aside your paper for at least three days, but keep in mind that even setting aside your paper for a few hours before you revise is better than nothing. Revision is not about fixing typos and grammatical errors. Revision is about seeing what you have written with new eyes and being willing to make major changes, additions, and deletions if it will improve the content of your paper. When you revisit your paper, read it with a focus on the content. Do your arguments hold up? If not, how might you improve them? Are the concepts in your paper clear and easy to understand? If not, how might you clarify these concepts? Having someone else take a look at your paper can also help you to improve your work. Someone who is not too familiar with philosophy may also help you to identify areas where you could offer more helpful details.  Try asking a classmate or friend (preferably someone who you know to be a good writer) to take a look at your paper and give you some feedback. Many universities also have writing centers where students can make an appointment and get some feedback from a trained writing tutor. This can also help you to develop effective strategies for revising your own work. You can also make an appointment with your professor if he or she is willing to provide feedback before you submit the paper. Just make sure that you request an appointment at least one week before the paper is due. Otherwise, your professor may not have time to meet with you. Proofreading is the final step in the writing process where you check for minor errors and correct them as needed. These little errors can distract your readers, so take time to proofread your work before you submit your final draft. To proofread, go through your paper and...

Article in English: Rewarm strips as necessary, and discard these when they are no longer effective.  Next, slowly separate the layers, exposing the wax. The benefit of wax strips is that they don’t require you to heat up the wax. The downside is that some people consider them more painful than hot wax because the wax remains cold. Choose the right wax strips. If you are using pre-coated wax strips, make sure you are using the correct kind for the area you are waxing. You don't want to use a leg waxing strip on your bikini line or on your face. Put the strip wax side down.  For example, a wax strip applied on the legs should be applied with pressure moving downwards because leg hair grows downwards. You want to press firmly on the strip, until the wax cools against the skin. This should just take a few seconds. Be sure to keep the strip as close to the skin as possible while removing it.  Don't wax the same place twice. Ripping the strip against the direction of hair growth pulls the hair from the root, ensuring thinner hair growth. The waxed region should remain hair free for about 2 weeks. Keep the skin taut as the discomfort subsides. Any wax left over can easily be washed off later. Remove excess wax from the skin with baby oil. Some people develop rashes once waxed.

Article in English: Rewrite your signature over and over to explore the possibilities. Have fun with it. Play with a variety of styles and flourishes. See what feels comfortable to write, looks good with your name, and isn’t too hard to copy repeatedly. Use a writing tool that feels right in your hand. Consider using pencil if you want to erase and rework your signature. Make a letter larger so that it stands out, or make it very small so that it blends in. This can give your signature a bold look without slowing your signing time down to a crawl. Try exaggerating the first letter of your name, or the first letters of your first and last name. If your signature is messy or curly, you can emphasize one letter by making it sharp and clear. Likewise, make a single letter sloppy or fancy if you want it to stand out from an otherwise clean-cut signature. This is a classic way to make your name look more ornate. Underlining can also take more time to write out than a simpler style – so consider whether it's worth it.  Turn one of your letters into an underline. This is commonly done with the last letter, but feel free to add a flourish to any letter that lends itself to the style. Letters with a long tail (y, g, j) are perfect. Drag the tail out beneath the signature. Underline your signature with loops. This is a very fluid, ornate way to spice up a signature.  Underline your signature with zig-zags. These are similar to loops, but spikier and more angular. Double up on your horizontal crosses, and end your looped letters in hooks and flourishes. Use a fountain pen, if possible. Draw inspiration from calligraphy, from old signatures, and from Gothic lettering. This adds flair to even a simple signature. This can be a great way to make your style more unique. Look for letters that lend themselves to an exciting twist, and experiment with ways to make them look fancier. Try the following ideas:  Use repeating elements. The three large ovals in this signature create an echo effect and help tie the whole design together. Allow your...

Article in English: Rhubarb is a cool-season plant that requires temperatures that drop below 40 °F (4 °C) in order to stimulate growth. The northern states in the US as well as Canada are good places to grow rhubarb. Check your growing zone to find out if you can grow rhubarb in the climate where you live.  Rhubarb grows best in USDA hardiness zones 3-8. This includes much of the northern parts of the Midwest as well as the northeastern regions of the US. Rhubarb wilts during the heat of hot southern summers. If you live in a southern region where it regularly goes above 75 °F (24 °C), it will probably be difficult to grow this plant. Rhubarb is best grown from roots (crowns), not seed, since the seeds take a long time to get established and there's no guarantee they'll ever germinate. Go to your local nursery and buy rhubarb roots or purchase some from an online source.  If you have a friend with a rhubarb plant, you may be able to dig up a crown from the side of their plant to get yours started. Rhubarb should be planted in an area in full sun. Look for a spot that drains well, since rhubarb won't do as well if water sits around its base. To determine whether soil drains well, dig a hole and fill it with water. If the water sits in the hole, the soil there doesn't drain well. If it immediately soaks into the ground, the soil is great for planting rhubarb. You may want to stick a ruler in the hole so that you can measure how quickly it drains. Ideally the water should drain out at a rate of 1-3 inches per hour. If it drains too fast, your plant will dry out; too slow and the roots may rot. Clear out weeds and other plants that may interfere with the rhubarb plants. Till your gardening bed to a depth of several feet and mix in plenty of compost, rotted manure or other organic matter to enrich the soil. This step is essential, since rhubarb needs plenty of nutrients to grow well.   You can also consider  building a raised bed to plant your rhubarb and other vegetables.

Article in English: Rid your electronics of any material that may cause you to stray.

You want to create an environment that encourages you to stick to your goals  and takes away any thoughts or feelings that do not align with your version of healthy sexuality.

Sexual jokes are often not funny, especially when directed at someone directly. They can often be disrespectful and hurtful. Poking fun at someone’s sexuality is never appropriate, especially when spread as gossip or intended to hurt someone. Just don’t do it. If you find a joke you find funny yet you know it will hurt someone, keep it to yourself. You may need to distract your thoughts and/or behaviors. Once you catch yourself in a thought or behavior you want to change, divert your attention. You may need to change your gaze, start a different conversation, or excuse yourself from the situation.  If you’re having a hard time staying focused, take a break and go to the bathroom, take a walk, or engage in something else altogether.

Article in English: Right now, it might be difficult to believe that you can ever move on from your loss. Recovery is possible, though, as long as you don't give up.  The healing process has a beginning, middle, and end for everyone. You're stuck at the beginning now, but if you keep moving forward, you'll eventually reach the end. Don't get discouraged by the occasional regression. You may feel worse today than you did yesterday, but that's not necessarily a bad sign. Surviving the loss of love usually requires you to go through both ups and downs. If you still find yourself in a state of disbelief, you need to stop running from the loss and admit that it has happened. You need to admit that you lost your love before you can recover from the pain of it. Don't downplay the loss, either. Your suffering is real. You don't need to feel ashamed of it, nor do you need to hide the fact that you're going through it. Pain naturally follows loss, and the loss of a love is no exception. Fighting the need to grieve will leave you feeling more worn out than living with your grief will do. Don't rush yourself through your grief, either. Everyone heals at his or her own pace, so you shouldn't try to shorten your grieving period in an attempt to seem more "normal." It's important to give yourself the support system you need right now. Humans are social creatures, so it is easier to survive loss when you're surrounded by people who care about you.  If you feel suicidal or find yourself spiraling out of control, seek immediate professional help. Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at: 1-800-273-8255 Even if you're emotionally stable, you should still seek comfort and support from loved ones. Accepting help from others can make you feel more vulnerable, but right now, it is ultimately better to be vulnerable with people who genuinely care for you than to isolate yourself. Note that help from those who have undergone a similar loss can be especially beneficial. If none of your loved ones have lost a love in a similar manner, consider...

Article in English: Right now, you need some serious distraction. Spending time home alone will just open the floodgates for thoughts that won't get you anywhere. So seek out your social network. Call up a few friends and make plans for this weekend. Go have lunch with your mom -- she probably misses you, anyway. Jam pack your schedule so much that you don't have time to think about her. It may seem like the best way to spend your time is balled up under the covers, eating Ben and Jerry's and not getting out of your pajamas for days. While this is very tempting, you won't realize how good getting out will feel until you do it. So even if you don't feel like doing anything social, force yourself. You'll probably be glad you did. . So it's not the best advice -- and if it's not your style, don't heed it -- but having a fling can be one of the best distractions you can give yourself. Just make sure the new girl knows it's a fling! No use breaking hearts left and right -- karma is rarely forgiving. Be safe. You don't want to turn into an emotionless, hedonistic player. A rebound is good -- going to the bar every night and waking up next to strange women is not. So find a girl who wants just to have a bit of fun and take advantage of it. It'll show you just how many fish in the sea there are. When you were in a relationship, you probably let a whole bunch of other things suffer. Your time was taken up and you didn't have anything to do the things you once enjoyed. Bring those back! What have you let slide recently that you'd like to pick back up? You'll be so much happier doing what you love and getting good at it. You'll feel accomplished, renewed, and full of direction. Don't know what your passion is? Find it! Use this free time to step outside your box and find out what gets you going. When's the last time you felt completely fascinated and in your element? Talk about distracting! . You know what's gonna make you feel good? Knowing you're hotter now than you were when you were with her. So start exercising and pumping that iron....

Article in English: Ring-sizers are plastic sheets with a variety of different sizes on them, which you can slide your finger into to find an appropriate fit. These are available at every jewelry counter for sizing rings. Your ring should fit your finger comfortably. It needs to be snug enough so that it stays on, but loose enough to slide off at the knuckle. The size of your finger changes very subtly, depending on the time of the day, what you've been doing, and the kind of weather. Fingers are smaller in the early morning and when cold.  Try to measure your finger a couple times at different times of day, to make sure you get an accurate sizing for your ring. Don't use string or a measuring tape to try to measure your finger size. This can be pretty inaccurate, and lead to ill-fitting rings. The following sizes are the width of your finger. If, after using the ring-sizer, you find that you're comfortable between two, always go a size up. This helps to ensure that you'll have some extra room and your ring will fit comfortably. The most common women's size is 6, while the most common men's size is 9.  Size 5 – 15.7mm Size 6 – 16.5mm Size 7 – 17.3mm Size 8 – 18.2mm Size 9 – 18.9mm Size 10 – 19.8mm Size 11 – 20.6mm Size 12 – 21.3mm Size 13 – 22.2mm . Most rings can be resized by professional jewelers, if you find the ring has become tight over time. If you return it to the place where you purchased it, they'll often do it for free. Milgrain and some other types of Tungsten rings can't usually be resized.

Article in English: Rinse a soda can with water, and leave approximately 15–30 millilitres (1.0–2.0 US tbsp) of water in the bottom of the can. If you don't have a measuring spoon, pour in just enough water to cover the bottom of the can. Fill a bowl with cold water and ice, or with water that has been kept in a cold refrigerator. A bowl deep enough to hold the can might make it easier to conduct the experiment, but it is not necessary. A clear bowl will make it easier to watch the can get crushed. In this experiment, you'll be heating this soda can until the water inside it boils, then rapidly moving it. Everyone nearby should be wearing splash-proof goggles in case hot water is sprayed toward their eyes. You'll also need a pair of tongs to grab the hot can without burning yourself, then turn it upside down into the bowl of ice water. Practice picking up the can with the tongs so you're sure they can pick up the can firmly. Continue only with adult supervision. Place the soda can upright on a stove burner, then turn the heat setting on low. Let the water boil outside the can, bubbling and letting out water vapor for about thirty seconds.  If you smell something strange or metallic, move on to the next section right away. The water might have boiled away, or the heat might have been too high, causing the ink or aluminum on the can to melt.  If your stove burner cannot support the soda can, use a hot plate, or use tongs with heat-resistant handles to hold the soda can over the stove. Hold the tongs with your palm facing upward. Use the tongs to pick up the can, then quickly turn it over above the cold water bath, plunging the can into the bowl of water. Be prepared for a loud noise as the can is rapidly crushed! Because of the sound, avoid performing the experiment around children younger than kindergarten-age.

Article in English: Rinse and dry your equipment thoroughly, and store in a dry place. Clean equipment is less likely to introduce bacteria and infection to your open, freshly shaved pores. Change the blades as needed. A dull blade will leave your face feeling raw and sore, and is much more likely to cause razor burn. Shaving once every couple days can help prevent your hairs from thickening, and making your next shave more irritating. The more consistently you shave, the better the quality of your shaves will be, and the better your complexion. Shaving removes dead skin and keeps pores from clogging, especially if you practice good hygiene after shaving.  Additionally, the low-grade friction created by shaving can stimulate collagen production and may lead to smoother skin with fewer wrinkles.  Use a styptic pencil if you are susceptible to nicks and cuts. When using a styptic pencil, simply wet and gently spread across the area where the nick occurred.  The material on the pencil will constrict the blood vessels near the cut, and prevent anymore blood from coming out.

Article in English: Rinse away any dirt and debris that may be left on the skin, using a scrubber if necessary to make sure it is entirely clean. Place a zucchini on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into discs that are each about 1–2 inch (2.5–5.1 cm) wide. Discard the two ends of each zucchini. Because they have such high moisture content, it's a good idea to salt the zucchini rounds to draw out some of the moisture. This will keep the final dish nice and crunchy.  Lay the zucchini rounds onto a plate lined with paper towels. Sprinkle them with salt. Let them sit for 10 minutes. Use a paper towel to wipe the moisture from each piece. Beat the egg and have it ready in a shallow bowl. Melt the butter and mix it with the bread crumbs into a separate bowl. Have your baking sheet ready nearby, so you can transfer the breaded rounds directly to it. Slice by slice, dip the zucchini pieces first in the beaten egg, then in the bread crumb bowl. Each side of the slices should be well coated in bread crumbs. Place the coated pieces in a single layer in the baking dish. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake the zucchini for 20 minutes, or until the breading is deep golden brown. Remove the dish from the oven. They're delicious with  marinara sauce or balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

Place a zucchini on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it lengthwise. Repeat with the remaining zucchinis. Arrange them all flesh-side up. Make sure each one gets an even coat. Put a light sprinkling of each on all the zucchini halves. Put an even amount on top of each of the zucchini halves. If you need more Parmesan, feel free to add it - it won't affect the outcome of the dish. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the zucchini for 10 minutes, or until the Parmesan has turned bubbly and golden brown. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Place the ribboned basil on top of the zucchini halves to serve. This is great as either a side dish or a light main course.

Article in English: Rinse each avocado under running water, and make sure that you wash it thoroughly. It doesn't matter whether you grew the avocado yourself or found it laying on the sidewalk, it's important that you rinse any chemicals and bacteria from your produce before you eat it. Dry the avocados with a clean towel afterwards to remove any persistent debris. Use a sharp knife to cut around the avocado lengthwise. Carefully place it on a cutting board, and start slicing at the top of the avocado. Rotate the avocado and knife so you cut around the entire avocado and meet up with the initial slit. Then hold the two halves of the avocado and twist them in opposite directions to open the fruit. Use a sharp, sturdy knife, and place the pit-containing half of the avocado on a cutting board. Thwack the knife solidly into the avocado pit (1/8-1/4 inch deep) so that it won't easily budge. Then, hold the avocado firmly and twist the knife (and attached pit) until the pit dislodges from the fruit. Tap or slide the pit off of the knife into a garbage can or compost bin.  Exercise great caution when using a knife. If you don't want to use a knife, you can remove the put with a spoon. If you use a spoon, try to wedge your tool beneath the seed and separate it from the surrounding meat so that you can scoop out the pit. Now that you have two avocado halves, cut the avocado halves in half again, to make 4 wedges. Then pull the dark outer skin away from the green flesh of the fruit. Peel the fruit by sliding your thumb in between the skin and meat of the fruit, and peel the skin back away from the meat.  If you slice the avocados open and scoop out the meat using a spoon, you don't need to peel the avocado. However, many people favor peeling off the skin of the avocado because it ensures you retain the dark green, high-nutrient layer of avocado meat closest to the outer skin. Consider cutting away the tough area where the stem meets the avocado. If you don't remove it now, you might find it amid your avocado butter later! You can...

Article in English: Rinse it in cold water and leave it to air dry. You can help it along by patting it dry with a paper towel. Be gentle, so the leaves don't break or bruise. Wait until the parsley is fully dry to remove the leaves from the stems. Keep going until you have a big pile of parsley leaves. If you'd rather keep the stems, skip this step and keep the parsley intact. The key is to get it packed nice and tight, which will help to preserve it. Stuff the bag entirely full. Use a bag small enough that you can fill it up completely. Pop into the freezer. When you need parsley for a recipe, all you have to do is scrape the side of the ball using a knife. Pieces will come off ready for use and you don't even have to chop it.

Article in English: Rinse off all the fruit except bananas and chop them into bite-size pieces. Place the cut, washed and dried fruit into a bowl.  Rinse the rinds of melons like cantaloupe and watermelon and slice off the top and bottom, then cut down the middle and slice the meat of the fruit in squares or with a melon baller. Rinse off apples and dry them with a clean paper towel, then slice around the core and cut the rest into cubes or slices. Rinse berries thoroughly and lay them out on a paper towel to dry. If you’re using bananas, simply peel the banana, lay it flat, and carefully cut it into small circular slices. Cut up a lemon, lime, pineapple or orange and squeeze the juice into a small, separate bowl. Mix one tablespoon of the citrus juice in one cup of water, then pour it over your fruit and toss. Using citrus juice is only necessary if you have fruits that will oxidize. If your fruit salad is composed of only non-oxidizing fruits, like berries, melons, or citrus, an airtight container in the refrigerator should keep it fresh. Place the fruit in a plastic bowl, preferably one with a lid, and fill it to the brim with cold water so that the fruit is completely submerged. Fruit spoils faster than leafy greens thanks to its high water content, so store your fruit salad in a bowl with a lid if possible. Otherwise, stretch plastic cling wrap across the top of the bowl. Your fruit salad needs to be refrigerated to keep the fruit fresh, even if your bowl doesn’t contain oxidizing fruit. Wait no longer than five days before eating it; after that point, the fruit will have lost much of its freshness. Remove the bowl from the refrigerator and pour the fruit into a strainer over the sink if you stored it in water, or scoop it out with a slotted spoon. Store dressing in a separate container in the refrigerator. Toss it into the salad just before you eat.

Article in English: Rinse one ripe lemon under cool water; pat dry with clean paper towels. Slice the lemon in half with a sharp kitchen knife and squeeze the juice from one half, collecting it in a small glass bowl.  In a pinch, you could technically use 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 ml) of bottled lemon juice for this mask, but freshly squeezed juice will retain more nutrients and is the ideal option. Similarly, you could select any ripe lemon for this mask, but using the juice of an organic lemon will be the most beneficial. Lemons have antibacterial properties, so lemon juice can help treat blackheads and other forms of acne. The acidic element acts as an exfoliator, too. Additionally, lemon juice can lighten and brighten age spots, dark spots, fake tans, and other uneven patches of skin, while reducing excess oil on your face. Squeeze the raw honey directly into the dish of lemon juice. You should use approximately equal portions of honey and lemon juice.  Like lemon juice, try to find organic, raw honey for this mask. Store-bought honey may work but will not be quite as good for your skin. Honey has antiseptic properties and may be able to help heal scars and inflammation. It can also help reduce and relief sunburn. Additionally, honey attracts water, making it a natural skin moisturizer. Thoroughly mix the honey and lemon juice by hand using a spoon. Continue mixing until evenly combined into a thick liquid. Note that you'll need to use this mask as quickly as possible--preferably all at once and within a few hours. Mold will grow if attempt to store it for prolonged periods.

Article in English: Rinse out your bathtub with a bit of soapy water and a sponge. Rinse out all the soap with clean water. This will ensure that you have a clean area to work in, and will prevent dirt from the tub from being transferred to the coat. If you don’t have a bathtub you can use, clean out a large sink or wash basin. When the tub is clean, put in the plug and fill it with lukewarm water. While the water is running, add ⅛ cup (29 ml) of mild liquid detergent, like Woolite or baby shampoo, to the stream. Let the tub fill with enough soapy water to immerse the coat. It’s important to use lukewarm water instead of hot water, because hot water can shrink the coat. Immerse the coat in the soapy water. Push it down until it’s saturated enough to stop floating. Leave the coat to soak for 30 minutes. Squeeze the jacket all over with your hands to make sure the soapy water gets into all the fibers. Saturating and soaking the coat will help prevent shrinkage. After an hour or two of soaking, rub soiled areas with your fingers to get rid of dirt and grime. Then, swish the coat around in the water to dislodge dirt and other particles. Don’t scrub the wool against itself to clean it, because this can cause felting. Drain the soapy water from the bathtub. Transfer the coat to a large bucket. Rinse out the tub, and then refill it with clean lukewarm water. Return the coat to the tubful of clean water. Swish the coat around in the water to remove excess dirt and soap. Repeat the rinsing process if necessary if there's still a lot of soap coming out in the water.

Article in English: Rinse out your mouth with cool or cold water. Rinsing may get rid of any debris that is causing your gums to itch and help soothe inflammation and swelling. Try and rinse with filtered or bottled water. You could be allergic to something in your water and that is causing your itchy gums. Suck on a piece of ice if your gums are itchy. The cold can numb the discomfort and reduce any inflammation associated with itchy gums.  Try popsicles or other frozen foods if you don’t like ice cubes. Allow the ice to melt, which can keep your oral cavity hydrated and may prevent further itching. Depending on the source of your itchy gums, gargling with some saltwater can relieve itchiness. Rinse with saltwater until your gums stop itching.  Mix one tablespoon of salt in glass of warm water. Gargle a mouthful for about 30 seconds, concentrating on your gums. Spit out the water when you're finished. Avoid swallowing the mixture and don’t use it for more than seven to 10 days. Mix a solution of hydrogen peroxide and water. The solution may minimize any itchiness or associated inflammation.  Mix 3% hydrogen peroxide with an equal amount of water. Rinse with the mixture for 15–30 seconds and spit it out when you’re done. Avoid using hydrogen peroxide for longer than 10 days. You can also try rinsing your mouth with bee propolis liquid, though this may stain your teeth. Add six to 10 drops into a glass of water and rinse for one minute before spitting out the solution. Mix baking soda and water to form a paste, then apply it to your gums. The paste may control any bacterial infections causing your gums to itch.  Spoon one tablespoon of baking soda with a few drops of filtered or bottled water. Add small amounts of water until the mixture makes a thick paste. Consider trying a mixture of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide.

Article in English: Rinse the asparagus under cool to lukewarm running water. Gently scrub the spears with your fingers to remove any excess dirt. Alternatively, place the asparagus in a colander and rinse the entire bunch at once. Gently shake the colander as you work to stir the spears and loosen any dirt. Remove the woody, white bottom portion of each spear by snapping or cutting it.  To break the end off by hand, firmly hold the asparagus spear in one hand, approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the end of the white section. Grasp onto the white end with your other hand and yank it in a downward movement. To cut the end off, use a sharp serrate knife and saw at the spear just above the end of the white portion. Use a serrated knife to cut the asparagus spears into 2-inch (5-cm) sections, slicing each spear at a slight angle.

Article in English: Rinse the beef tongue under cool running water and pat dry with clean paper towels. When buying beef tongue, it is especially important that you purchase it from a reliable source. You may need to buy it in frozen form, rather than buying it fresh, since it is not a common cut of meat in most geographic areas. Put the beef tongue in the bottom of the slow cooker. Surround it with your cut onions and garlic cloves, then sprinkle it with salt. Pour the water over the entire thing.  There is no need to turn the beef tongue. The flavors of the garlic, onion, and salt should sink into the meat as it cooks. Cover the slow cooker with its lid before continuing. The meat should be tender enough to shred when done.  If you do not have a full 8 hours, you could switch the slow cooker to high and cook the beef tongue for 4 to 5 hours, instead. Do not remove the lid during the initial cook time. Doing so can release too much steam, and since the steam is partially responsible for cooking the meat, letting it escape can increase the overall cook time by another 15 to 30 minutes. If the meat does not feel tender after 8 hours, you may need to cook it for another 1 to 2 hours. Place the cooked beef tongue in a large dish or rimmed baking sheet. Make a shallow cut in the skin at the open end of the beef tongue, then peel the rest of the skin off using your fingers.  You should also trim away any fatty tissue at the bottom end of the tongue using the knife. The majority of the cut will be edible meat, even after you cut away the skin and fat. Use two forks to shred the tongue meat into pieces. Work from the outside and move inward into the cut of meat. Place the shredded tongue meat into a large mixing bowl. Ladle a little of the cooking liquid on top, then toss well to coat.  Use enough liquid to moisten the meat without drowning it. Ideally, the liquid should be degreased and strained before you pour it over the meat. The barbacoa beef tongue is ready to eat and enjoy. Serve it on warm tortillas, and offer garnishes such as...

Article in English: Rinse the carrots under running water, scrubbing them gently with your fingers or a vegetable brush to remove any dirt. Use a sharp knife to cut the carrots into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces and to slice the onions into thin rings.  To save time, you may use baby carrots or carrots pre-cut into "coins" instead of whole carrots. Substitute roughly 5 to 8 baby carrots or 1/2 cup (125 ml) pre-cut coins per regular whole carrot. The onion can also be cut into quarters or minced. The flavor of  the gravy will not be dramatically affected either way, so how you cut the onions is mainly a matter of aesthetic taste. Substitute dried onion flakes or onion powder for the fresh onion, if desired. This step saves time and also makes it possible to get the onion flavor while hiding the actual onion from picky eaters. Use 1/4 cup (60 ml) dried onion flakes or 1 tsp (5 ml) onion powder. Mix the two ingredients together in a small bowl using a whisk or fork. Use a medium-high heat, and allow the oil to warm for a full minute or so. A little will go a long way. If you aren't sure about the amount, start with 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) each and go from there. Make sure to season all sides. Place the roast in the skillet and sear in 30 to 60 second intervals, flipping it over with tongs after each interval until all sides are browned. This step is only optional. You do not have to pre-brown the roast in order to cook it in the slow cooker, but pre-browning adds more flavor to the roast and the gravy.

Article in English: Rinse the eggplant in cool running water, then dry it with clean paper towels.  Even though you'll be removing the skin, you should still take the time to clean the dirt from it. Bacteria and grime from the skin of the eggplant can get on your hands as you handle it during the peeling process. That debris can transfer from your hands to the flesh of the eggplant post-peeling. By cleaning the vegetable before you peel it, you minimize this risk. To the same end, you should also make sure that your hands are clean before you handle the eggplant. Wash your hands well with soap and water, then dry them off. Use a sharp kitchen knife to remove the stem end of the eggplant. Cut off the stem end in a clean slice, positioning the slice just below the base of the stem.  The part of the eggplant connected to the stem and the leaves is naturally tougher than the rest of the vegetable, so removing it will improve the eggplant's overall texture.     Removing the stem also exposes the flesh of the eggplant, thereby giving you a cleaner, easier place to start your peeling.     If desired, you can also cut off the bottom end of the eggplant during this time. The peel can be tricky to remove at the very bottom of the eggplant, so some people prefer to remove a 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) slice of eggplant from the bottom to avoid dealing with the skin there.    Hold the eggplant in your non-dominant hand, bracing the bottom against your cutting board at a sideways tilt. Using your dominant had, position the blade of a vegetable peeler beside the skin on the top cut end of the eggplant. Draw the peeler down over the full length of the eggplant, taking a straight strip of skin with you as you go. Always peel along the length of the eggplant (top to bottom) rather than peeling across the width (side to side). The eggplant is easier to handle when you peel along the length. As a result, the process will take much quicker and you are less likely to accidentally cut yourself.     The bottom of the eggplant should be tilted away from you or...

Article in English: Rinse the frog legs and pat dry with clean paper towels. Divide them at the joint using sharp kitchen scissors. If you do not have a pair of scissors set aside for kitchen use, you could use a sharp knife, instead. Place the crushed crackers, flour, cornmeal, dried minced onion, salt, and pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Zip the back up and shake vigorously to combine the ingredients together. Make sure that the bag is large enough to fit the coating ingredients as well as one or two frog leg pieces at a time. Whisk the eggs and milk together in a small bowl until thoroughly mixed. The mixture should be a consistent pale yellow color without any variations or streaks of white or darker yellow. Pour the vegetable oil and peanut oil into the skillet and heat them over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes.  The oil should be about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) deep. Make sure that the skillet you use is heavy and has high sides. If you do not have a large skillet with tall sides, you could use a saucepan, instead. Dip each leg in the egg mixture. After letting the excess drip off, dredge each leg in the cracker mixture, turning to coat all sides. If the bag with the cracker mixture is large enough, you can place a few pieces of frog leg in the bag at once, seal it, and shake lightly to coat them. Transfer the frog legs into the hot oil, cooking each one for about 5 minutes per side.  Be careful as you put the legs in the oil. The oil may sputter and spit at you if you get your hand too close or cause it to splash up by dropping the legs in with too much force. If you notice that the legs are browning too fast, reduce the heat of the stove to medium from medium-high. Use tongs to fish the cooked frog legs from the hot oil and transfer them to clean paper towels. Serve once the legs have drained for a minute or so.

Article in English: Rinse the frozen fish in cold water to remove ice crystals from the surface. Avoid warm water, since this can promote bacterial growth and waterlog your fish.  Always wash your hands in warm, soapy water before handling raw fish. If the fish has not been gutted, use the thawing method below instead, then remove the inedible portions. Pat the fish dry with a paper towel. This will remove additional ice crystals, as well as the moisture clinging to the fish scales. Thick slabs of frozen fish will take a long time to cook, but you can reduce this by wrapping them in foil or parchment pouches. The ice crystals in the fish will turn to steam, remain trapped in the packet, and help cook the fish more quickly. Increasing the cooking speed is especially important for high-heat cooking methods, as described below:  Grill fish in tightly closed foil packets, to prevent the outside charring while the inside cooks. If pan-searing the fish, do not wrap the fish. Instead, cover the pan once the fish begins releasing juices, to trap steam that helps cook the fish evenly. Cooking the fish for a couple minutes will melt some of the ice on the exterior. This makes it easier to rub oil, butter, or marinade into the fish, and to get spices to stick. If you are breading the fish, you can place them fully frozen in a pan and cover with a thick layer of bread crumbs and spices. You can cook frozen fish however you would normally cook fish, or look in the recipes section for ideas. Frozen fish can take twice as long to cook as fresh fish, but you're still saving time by skipping the thawing stage. This is only a general time estimate, and the actual amount of time required varies base on the thickness of the fish. Check on the fish every couple minutes, using the following tips to tell when its done:  Cut a slit with a sharp knife. When done, the fish will be completely opaque near the surface, and just starting to become opaque in the center.  If you have a food thermometer, cook the fish to an internal temperature of 145ºF (62.8ºC).

Once the rind and green have been cut from the melon, cut the cantaloupe in half through the center. Place the halves cut-side up on a flat surface. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds from the center, but don't scoop out the sweet and juicy orange flesh. The seeds can either be discarded into a compost bin or cleaned and roasted like pumpkin seeds. Transfer any leftover cantaloupe chunks to an airtight container. Store them in the refrigerator for about three days. For longer storage, keep the cantaloupe in the freezer for up to a year.

Article in English: Rinse the pork well in cold water. Trim off any excess fat using a sharp knife. Roughly slice the onions. Place one sliced onion in the bottom of the crockpot. This will prevent the meat from burning. Place the roast on top, then cover with the second onion. Pour the ginger ale over the pork and onions. Cover the pork and cook on low for approximately 12 hours. Depending on the size of your pork and the type of crockpot, you may need to adjust this time upwards or downwards. When it's cooked, you should be able to shred the pork easily with a fork. If you cannot, it probably needs more cooking time. When the meat is tender, remove the pork from the crockpot and drain the liquid. Set the onions aside for now. Using two forks, shred the meat, discarding any fat, bones or skin. Most of the fat will have melted away by now. Place the shredded meat and onions back in the crockpot. Stir in the entire bottle of barbecue sauce. Continue to cook on low heat for another 4-6 hours. Serve your barbecue pulled pork with hamburger buns or rolls and additional barbecue sauce. Any leftovers will keep well in the freezer.

Article in English: Rinse the rutabaga under cool water and scrub the skin with a vegetable brush. This will remove any excess dirt from the surface of the vegetable. Pat the rutabaga dry with a clean towel or paper towel. Make sure that the rutabaga is completely dry to prevent an accident when you're peeling and chopping. Carefully slice off the top and bottom stems from the rutabaga. Trim about ½ inch (1.3 cm) off the top and bottom. Stand the rutabaga on the top end and cut it in half. Use a paring knife to carefully peel off the top layer of skin. Vegetable peelers aren't always effective for rutabaga, which has a skin that’s often covered in a thick waxy coating. Use a kitchen knife and cut the peeled halves into 1-inch (2.5-cm) chunks. This will help the rutabaga to cook faster. Cut all the chunks to the same size and thickness to ensure even cooking. Transfer the chunks to a large stockpot and cover the rutabaga with water. Add an extra inch or two (2.5 to 5 cm) of water to ensure the rutabaga is completely covered. Put on a lid and heat the rutabaga over medium-high heat. When the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for another 30 to 40 minutes. The rutabaga is ready when a fork can easily pierce the flesh. When the rutabaga is cooked through, pour the contents of the stockpot through a colander to drain the water. Return the rutabaga to the pot. Add the butter and nutmeg. Use a potato masher, hand mixer, or fork to mash the rutabaga until it’s smooth.  You can leave some small chunks of rutabaga in the mash if you like, or puree it until it’s completely smooth and free of chunks. For an extra creamy mash, add a dollop of sour cream to the rutabaga as well. Add salt and pepper, to taste, and stir the seasonings into the mash. You can also add fresh or dried herbs, such as dill, oregano, or rosemary, or other seasonings like minced garlic. Serve the mashed rutabaga while it’s still hot, either on its own or as a side dish with roast beef, duck, or stir fry.
