Turn the oven on to 375 degrees F (190 C). Get out a large baking dish and spray it thoroughly with cooking spray. Set the pan aside while you prepare the potatoes. Heat 1 tablespoon of salted butter in a large pot or saucepan. Melt the butter over medium heat and add 1 medium thinly-sliced onion. Stir the onion and cook it for about 5 minutes. The onion should soften and turn a little golden. Add 2 tablespoons of flour to the onion and stir the mixture so the onion is coated. Slowly stir in 2 cups (473 ml) of skim milk. The flour and onion will create a sauce for the scalloped potatoes. Thinly slice 2 pounds (907 g) of Yukon gold potatoes and add them to the sauce in the pan. Keep cooking the potatoes in the sauce and stir it occasionally until the mixture comes to a boil. You'll need to stir the mixture, so the milk doesn't scorch on the bottom of the pan. Turn off the heat and add 3/4 cup (75 g) of the reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese. You'll also need to stir in 1 teaspoon of table salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Taste the sauce and adjust the flavorings according to your taste. Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish and use a spoon to even out the potatoes. Put the dish in the preheated oven and bake the casserole for 1 hour. Avoid covering the potatoes at this point. This will let the potatoes become golden and thicken the sauce. Carefully remove the hot dish from the oven and cover the pan with aluminum foil. Return the pan to the oven and bake the scalloped potatoes for 20 more minutes. The potatoes should be completely tender once they've finished cooking.

Summary: Preheat the oven and prepare a dish. Saute the onion. Stir in the flour and milk. Add the potatoes and heat the mixture. Stir in the cheese and seasoning. Bake the low-fat scalloped potatoes for 1 hour. Cover the potatoes and bake them for 20 more minutes.

Pour at least 1/2 cup of milk in a medium saucepan and heat on low or medium. Heat the milk until it is warmed through. You don't want your milk to boil. Heat just until it starts to bubble then turn the stove off. The thicker the milk or cream you use, the thicker your foam will be. However, using 2% or low-fat milk may be easier if you are frothing by hand. Lower-fat milks usually include whey proteins that are critical stabilizers for milk foam. While the milk is being heated, make your espresso using the first method. You can also heat the milk while the beverage is steeping. Do this while the coffee is steeping. Place the pan on a towel or surface that isn't hot but that won't get damaged by the heat from the pan. Angle your pot and set an immersion blender in the shallow end of the pot. Froth the milk on high speed until the foam holds, about 2 to 3 minutes blending on high. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can use a whisk and stir the milk in a smaller container. Stir by rotating the whisk back and forth between the palms of your hands. Stir until your milk is bubbly and frothy. Once you've poured your milk, tighten the lid and give the jar a good shake. Don't fill the jar more than halfway. This won't leave enough room for the milk to foam. Shake until the milk is bubbly and nice and foamy. You should be shaking for about 30 to 60 seconds. Then microwave the jar (making sure you have a microwave safe jar) for about 30 seconds. This allows the foam to rise to the top. Divide the coffee out amongst the cups and spoon the frothed milk on top of each. Serve immediately. You can also pour the leftover milk into your drink if you like milk in your drink.

Summary: Heat the milk. Prepare your espresso in your French Press. Remove the milk from heat. Blend the milk. Pour the frothy milk into a jar with a lid. Pour your espresso coffee.

Overbust styles cover from the top of the breasts to just above the hips or to the lap and can have straps or be strapless. They are popular in costumes, lingerie, or as a fashion statement. Select this style if you want a corset that covers more skin, or can be worn on its own. Underbusts generally start just under the bust line and go down to the hips or lap. Underbusts are easy options because they only require waist measurements. They are useful as waist cinchers under clothes, or can even be worn on the outside of clothes for a unique look. Bustiers are similar to corsets, but are simpler and generally much more affordable. They offer similar looks, but will not have true boning, or no boning at all. They are great as lingerie or for a fun costume, but do not offer as much structure or shape as a true corset will. Waist trainers are a more advanced type of corset that can alter the physical arrangement of a body to reduce inches from the waist. This type of training must be done over extended periods of time and requires a sturdy, well-fitted, high quality corset. Waist-training comes with certain risks, and should only be attempted after careful research and by someone with some corset experience. Waist cinchers are generally latex or some other elastic material used to squeeze in the waist and flatten or smooth the shape of the body. While these are sometimes mistakenly referred to as waist trainers, a more appropriate title might be "waist tamer" as they do not offer significant long-lasting effects, yet are easy to wear and fit into.

Summary: Choose an overbust style for more coverage. Opt for an underbust for a more subtle look. Wear a bustier for a casual option. Try a waist trainer for more a more permanent effect. Select a waist cincher or body shaper as a more comfortable option.

The more you talk to the cool kids, the more you'll learn about them. You don't need to be at a big party to talkyou can do it in the hallway between classes. Even if they're with a group, walk with them and chime in. If you see a couple of cool kids by themselves, go up and small talk to learn some basic interests. Ask if they've heard about the theme for homecoming. Tell them about your weekend. Bring up a class you have in common. Lunch is a very important time for socializing in school. It's one of the few times of the day you actually have time to chat about absolutely anything for more than a moment or two. Don't overthink itsimply walk up and ask if you can sit with them. They'll probably control the conversation but tune in when you can.If nothing elseyou can talk about the food. Cafeteria food is always an open ended conversation. Put together a hangout to get everyone together. It can be a study party for a big test, an evening hangout, or a spot to prepare for the game or dance that weekend. Make sure you ask your parents before you invite a lot of people to your house. The cool kids, as most people you'll encounter in your life, will find it easier to relate to you if you have a sense of humor. When they start asking you questions, answer with some humor. You could also do this by telling them about a good time you had that made you laugh. Don't make it inappropriate. Until you have a close relationship with them, this might lead them to be offended. Differences are just as necessary as similarities in new friends. Showing people the way that you think is endearing. Having things in commonlike clothing and music tasteis very helpful. However, differences can help bond you together as well. Don't fake similarities: embrace differences.
Summary: Small talk in the hall way. Sit with them at lunch. Offer to have everyone over. Show them your sense of humor. Embrace differences.
