For a medium heat, use 3 chili peppers or use 6 chili peppers for a hot one. The method for preparation of the chilies is outlined above. Chop the onion finely and add it to a bowl with the lime juice and rind. The purpose of doing this is to soften the onion in readiness for adding to the salsa. Cut a small cross on the base of each tomato. Place the tomatoes into a heatproof bowl. Pour boiling hot water over the tomatoes and leave them to soak for 30 seconds. Remove the tomatoes and plunge them into a bowl of cold water. Drain well, then peel off the skins. Place the pieces into the salsa bowl. Add this chopped cilantro to the salsa mixture. Aim to coat everything with the lime juice. Place it into the refrigerator to chill and marinate for 23 hours. This will give the flavors time to blend well. Serve with tortillas, corn chips, beans or rice.

Summary: Assemble the ingredients and items needed to make the salsa. Decide how hot you'd like the salsa to be. Prepare the tomatoes. Peel the tomatoes. Dice the peeled tomatoes. Add the soaked chopped onion and any lime juice and rind left. Chop the cilantro (fresh coriander) finely. Add the diced chili peppers and the sugar. Mix everything together gently until you see the sugar dissolve. Cover the salsa bowl. Before serving, throw a few lime rind pieces on top to garnish.

You will need a wooden headboard and footboard. If they are attached, detach them. This project works best if there is either a flat skirt on the footboard or two-part skirt with an even edge at the top. Once you have the frame and the boards are detached, sand the wood to remove old paint or varnish, if you want to. Measure a vertical center line on the footboard and mark it with a pencil or other marking tool. Use a jigsaw or circular saw to cut the footboard along the center line. The two pieces will become the sides of the bench, while the headboard will be the back of the bench. Along the edges you just cut, drill evenly space holes for dowels. Find dowels that are an appropriate size and then use the drill bit for that size to drill the holes. Measure the height from the floor to the holes that you cut, as well as the distance between the holes, and then make identical holes in the same location on the front of the headboard posts. The number of holes you drill and where you drill them will depend on the shape and style of the bed. If your bed is of a non-standard shape, you may have to alter how you attach the footboards to the headboard. It may be necessary to attach them at the sides, rather than at the front of the posts. Insert the dowels, applying wood glue in both holes, and attach the footboards to the headboard. It should now be starting to look like a bench! Lay the bench on its back and attach 1x6s (cut to the appropriate length) to the footboards using L brackets and wood screws. Attach these at whatever height works for you and that the footboards allow. Use however many boards are needed to create a wide enough seat. Add a 1x3 board to the bottom of the front seat-board to make a skirt, if you want to. Caulk all the joints and gaps so that the connections are more sturdy. Upright the bench when necessary during this process. Paint the bench (with outdoor paint if you intend to put it outside), if you want to. You may also wish to add seat cushions or upholster the bench.

Summary: Buy and prepare an old bed frame. Measure and mark the center line on the footboard. Cut the footboard. Create the attachment points on the footboard. Attach the footboards to the headboard. Attach the seat. Caulk all joints. Add finishing touches.

Shoulder pads are a classic solution to narrow or small shoulders. Some clothes come with built in shoulder pads, such as blazers and coats. You might also be able to get away with putting shoulder pads on under a thick sweater. Be careful not to overstuff with shoulder pads or they will look too obvious. Baggy clothing can actually make your shoulders look narrower, so it is best to avoid it. Instead, choose clothing that fits you well, such as fitted jeans and shirts. It is especially important to choose clothing that is fitted around your waist because this can help to create the V-shape that makes your shoulders look wider. Wearing horizontal stripes across your chest and shoulders can also make your shoulders look wider. Try wearing a sweater that has a stripe or two going across the chest and/or shoulder area. White can make you seem like you have wider shoulders as well by making the top half of your body appear larger. Try wearing white dress shirts and t-shirts to see if this enhances the size of your shoulders. You can take advantage of the effects of layering your clothes in the winter to give the look of wider shoulders. Try wearing a sweater over a long sleeved shirt, or layer a t-shirt over a waffle shirt. You can also try wearing two or three t-shirts in warmer weather to create this effect. However, make sure that the collars or sleeves of the other shirts don't peak out or it may look odd. Wear a larger shirt over the others to hide the edges.

Summary: Wear shoulder pads. Choose clothing that fits well. Try some horizontal stripes. Opt for white shirts. Dress in layers.

It is important to discuss feelings with your toddler. Through your discussion of how they feel, they begin to learn words associated with those feelings and can later use those words to talk out their feelings. This will help them transition to talking about feelings instead of acting out their frustrations. You might say something like "I know you are sad that it is bedtime, but we can play with your toys again tomorrow." It is important to observe how your children play and act out to understand their feelings. By watching and understanding your toddler's feelings you can more effectively discuss them. You can also teach your toddler to express their feelings in more socially constructive ways. If your toddler is angry, you might say something like "I know that you are upset that the candy is gone, but you cannot hit people. Instead, you can show us you are upset by taking a deep breath and just telling us you are upset." Toddlers need to understand what is expected of them. They will naturally push the boundaries, but if you set firm limits and give explanations for those limits, most toddlers will begin to respect the rules. This gives them the structure and boundaries they need to feel secure. Emphasize the positive aspects of rules with your toddler. For example, explain that the your child must get enough sleep tonight so that he or she can have more fun tomorrow. Babies do not interact very well with each other, but once children start to reach the toddler phase, they begin to socialize a bit with other kids. Encourage your toddler to make friends, and teach him or her how to do things like introduce him or herself. This is one of the early milestones in socializing your child. Do not be surprised if your toddler plays more "beside" the other children than they play "with" the other children. Parallel play is common in this stage.
Summary: Teach your toddler about feelings. Observe your toddler's feelings. Discuss limits with your toddler. Encourage your toddler to make friends.
