Article: Use homemade bread, if possible, such as white bread, braided challah bread, or French bread. Slice the bread into six slices, about 1.5 in (3.8 cm) thick. Use a paring knife to cut a horizontal pocket into each slice of bread, taking care not to cut completely through the slice. Use homemade jam, if possible. Mix the jam and softened cream cheese together. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag or a sealable plastic bag. Use any jam or marmalade you like, such as blueberry, orange, or mixed berry. Snip off a bottom corner of your sealable bag, if applicable. Squeeze the piping bag to fill the pocket of one slice of bread. Press down around the edges of the bread to secure the sandwich. Use about 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of filling for each sandwich. Repeat this process for each sandwich. In a bowl, whisk together a batter of eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla, if desired. Coat the bread on both sides. Place the butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Cook one side of the pocket until it is golden brown, then flip the bread with a spatula and cook the other side equally. You can top the pockets with sprinkled powder sugar, warmed-up jam, or syrup. Try adding a side, like breakfast meat or fresh fruit.

Select and slice bread. Combine the filling ingredients in a sealable bag or piping bag. Stuff the bread with filling. Dip the bread in the egg mixture. Cook each pocket for about four minutes on each side. Dress and serve the bread.
Article: Blinking gives your eyes a brief rest and moisturizes them so they don't dry out. Take 2 minutes and blink once every 30 seconds, making sure your eyes are completely closed before opening them again. After slowly blinking, spend another 2 minutes where you blink every 4 seconds. Repeat the process several times throughout the day to train your eyes to blink more. This is especially helpful if you focus on a computer or TV screen all day since your eyes get strained more easily. Be sure your eyes close completely when you blink, or else they may still get strained. Pretend that there's a horizontal figure-8 shape about 610 feet (72120in) in front of you. While keeping your head still, follow along the figure-8 pattern using only your eyes. Continue tracing the pattern in one direction for about 2 minutes before changing following along in the opposite direction. Repeat the exercise 2-3 times daily to improve your eyes' flexibility. If you can't easily make a figure-8 pattern, try rolling your eyes instead. Keep your eyes open and move them around clockwise. After 1-2 minutes, switch to rolling your eyes counterclockwise for 2 minutes. Hold your arm straight out in front of you and stick your thumb up. Focus on your thumb for about 5 seconds before changing your focus to something that's about 1520 feet (4.66.1m) away to relax. Continue changing focus every 5 seconds for 2 minutes to improve your near sight. Practice outside or in front of a window so you can easily look out and choose something to focus on that's far away. Keep your thumb out in front of you when you're focusing on the far away object so it's easier to refocus on. When you aren't focusing on your thumb, it will look blurry in front of the far away object. Put your arm straight out in front of you and stick your thumb up. Pull your arm closer to your face, maintaining focus on it so it doesn't go blurry. Stop when your thumb is about 3 inches (7.6cm) from your face or until you see double. Slowly stretch out your arm again until your thumb is back in the original position. Repeat the process for at least 10 minutes to help you develop better focus. Palming is a technique used to help relax your eyes when they feel strained. Rub your palms together for 5-10 seconds so they're warm and then gently place them over your eyes while they're closed. Take deep breaths while you cover your eyes for 1 minute. Try palming 2-3 times per day to help alleviate your eyes. Don't apply pressure to your eyes since you could damage them.

Practice blinking slowly and rapidly to help reduce eye strain. Trace a figure-8 pattern with your eyes to strengthen your eye muscles. Shift focus from your thumb to something far away to improve vision. Move your thumb closer and further away from you to practice focus. Hold your palms on your eyes for 5 seconds to relax them.
Article: Cover it with water. Place the lid on the pot right when you turn it down. This is often referred to as the traditional method of cooking corned beef. After a few hours of cooking, tip 1 side of the lid up to check that the water is still covering the brisket. Add 1 cup (237ml) of boiled water to the top of the pot, if the water is getting low. Check the meat 1 to 2 times to ensure you keep water levels high. This will replace water that is lost through steam. Every time you remove the lid, you will extend the cooking time slightly. Test the meat with a fork. If it is fork-tender it is most likely done. Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the brisket. If the thermometer reads 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius), it is cooked.

Place the brisket inside a large pot on the stovetop. Bring the water to a boil, then turn it down to medium-low or low heat to allow it to simmer. Set your timer to boil the meat for 1 hour per lb (0.5kg) of brisket. Keep a kettle of boiled water nearby. Avoid checking the corned beef too often. Do not add vegetables until the last 30 minutes of cooking. Remove the lid when the timer beeps. Drain the meat and vegetables.
