INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The latch should be black, square, and located at the bottom end of the key holder. Your Mercedes key will fall out of its holder. Hold out your other hand to catch it as you pull the latch to avoid losing it. After you remove the key, you should notice an empty slot around the bottom end of the key holder. Turn your key holder sideways and push your key into the slot. Push the key entirely in, until you cannot push it further, to open the battery compartment. When your key has triggered the latch, the top of the battery compartment will jut out slightly. Grab it by the end and pull it slowly out of the key holder. Once pulled out, you should notice 2 exposed battery slots. Take out your 2 old batteries and replace them with 2 new ones in the designated slots. Slide the battery compartment back into the key holder until you hear a click. Put your key back into the slot vertically until it is secure as well.

SUMMARY: Pull the latch at the end of the key holder down. Stick your key horizontally into the open slot. Lift the battery compartment up and out of the key holder bottom. Remove and replace your CR 2025 batteries.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Stir 1 1/2 cups flour (150 g) and 2 cups (500 ml) mineral water or spring water together in a large plastic or earthenware bowl. If your tap water tastes fine and doesn't have an odor, it should be effective to use, too. Many people believe that chlorinated water is a starter's death warrant, but start experimenting and use your own experience to judge what gives you the best results. Do not mash the grapes or otherwise think their juices need to seep into the batter; it's just the fruit that needs to be present. You may use plums, or any other fruit that has a natural "bloom" of yeast on the skin surface. The starter needs to get air but no dust or bugs. Set it on your counter top, preferably in a warm place. If you put a lid on too tightly, you risk it building up pressure and exploding. Not too warm. On top of the refrigerator is a nice spot. This is called "feeding" the sourdough batter. In a couple days there should be signs of "starting"; namely, bubbling a bit as the yeasts feed on the starch and sugar. If this doesn't happen within 48 hours, discard the batch and begin again. Don't worry if the batter separates; this means the water rises and the flour sinks. This is normal. After 5 or 6 days the starter will develop a good, yet slightly sour, smell. It is yeasty and not unpleasant. Some schools of thought say that feeding it twice a day is ideal. Experiment to see which method warrants you the best results. Do this at least once a day! You'll get a consistency similar to thick drippy pancake batter. After this time, remove and discard the grapes. You'll need to feed and stir it every day to keep it healthy. If you begin to get too much batter (say to a gallon), discard the excess. It takes four cups starter to make two loaves of bread. Every time you use the starter, replenish it like this: For each cup starter you remove, stir in 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup cool water. If you don't use the starter every few days, keep it in the fridge and feed it at least once weekly or it will die. If it gets very yellow and doesn't "rise" before baking, discard and start again. Starters have been continued for decades. It is possible (though not always recommended) to freeze your starter and revive it at a later date.

SUMMARY: Combine the flour and water. Add the bunch of grapes, pushing it into the batter. Cover the bowl lightly with a clean dish towel or cheesecloth. Every day, stir in a tablespoon of water and a tablespoon of flour. Continue feeding every day. Feed it for a couple more days. Cover the starter and refrigerate it. Take the starter out of refrigeration the evening before you use it.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Many of the products that form these natural ant barriers are probably already in your kitchen; they just need to be deployed properly. A barrier doesn't need to be wider than a of an inch (6.35mm) but it must form an unbroken line. Use barriers on places like sills, floors, counters, and around ant access points. Some of the items with which you can form barriers include: Powdered charcoal A line of chalk Turmeric Cinnamon Citrus oil Black pepper, cayenne pepper, or red chili pepper. Vaseline (great for doors and windows) Baby powder Powdered cleanser White vinegar and water Desiccating dusts (such as diatomaceous earth or silica aerogel) Ants dislike various scents. Some of these include peppermint, camphor, and garlic. These can be used fresh or in oil form as a deterrent for ants in an area of your home. Use camphor with caution, as it is poisonous to humans and animals. The great thing about these fragrant deterrents is that your own preferences for scent can be used to improve the overall smell of your household odors. Sprinkle crushed mint leaves in ant infested rooms and grow mint near the entrance areas. Dried peppermint is also effective. Rub a raw clove of garlic over ant trails and entrances. Sprinkle lavender oil in ant afflicted areas and grow lavender near their entrances. Spread some oil of clove in ant zones or crush cloves and sprinkle it as a barrier. Ants are especially attracted to sugar, paprika, and flour. Put bay or bay laurel leaves in your sugar can, flour container, and paprika jar. Over time, the ant repelling strength of these leaves and lose potency. Replace these every month for best results. This is not a danger to kids, so it's a great technique to use where children congregate, such as at school. It's also pet safe, making this a great option if you have animals. Sprinkle Splenda over the trails of any ants you see. Once the ants consume the Splenda, they should die shortly after the fact. Be sure to replenish your Splenda as necessary. Spread coffee grounds on ant hills and along your house foundation. This safe material confuses the worker ants because they lose their scent trails. This causes the hatched young in the ant colonies to have no food and starve. Be persistent and patient with your use of grounds. It may take a season before you start noticing an effect. It is important to reapply grounds every year, at minimum. Refreshing grounds more frequently will have a stronger, more immediate effect. Combine a small amount of dish soap and baking soda in a bucket half filled with water. Agitate this mixture with your hand or a stirring implement. Spread a thin line of this liquid along area where ants are coming in. This technique is a great solution for dealing with ants that are invading windowsills.

SUMMARY: Put up defensive barriers. Sprinkle around deterring odors. Use bay laurel or bay leaves to keep ants from attractants. Sprinkle Splenda over ant trails. Use coffee grounds. Use dish soap with baking soda.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A zester is a great tool for peeling only the exocarp (outside layer of the lemon's skin), and comes with several sizes. See Making and Freezing Lemon Juice, below. Placing the portions in a glass mason jar, rather than a plastic bag, will ensure that the small portions are not crushed or crumbled in the freezer.

SUMMARY:
Using a citrus zester, shave off lemon peel from lemon. Use lemon fruit for juice and piths for pectin. Place lemon zest in a glass mason jar and freeze.
