Problem: Article: Create a thick paste using water and/or club soda and apply to grout (the same way you applied it with the banking soda paste). Wipe away with a clean cloth as you work.
Summary: Turn to oxygen bleach (Oxy) if all else fails. Wait 15 minutes and then scrub.

Problem: Article: Your indigo will spout bright, pink or purple flowers. If you want to harvest the leaves to create your own dye, the blossoms are your sign that it's time to pluck. This will usually occur in late summer. You may choose not to harvest your indigo, as the plant makes a lovely ornament. If you're making your own dyes, you can leave the flowers alone. The dye is made from the leaves. You will need at least 1 pound (0.45kg) of leaves to create a dye. Use your fingers to pluck them, or, if you prefer, cut them with a pair of scissors or small pruning shears. You can remove them all at once or in batches. Alternatively, you can use a sickle or garden shears to cut down the entire plant. Your plant will likely sprout more leaves. You can pull the leaves or cut down the entire plant. After this harvest, your plants will enter a dormant period over winter. You do not need to cover your indigo during winter. In most cases, you'll be able to harvest the leaves 2-3 times each season. If your area isn't tropical, then this usually means 2-3 times for each plant, after which they die.
Summary: Harvest indigo just after the plant blooms. Pick the leaves from the plant, starting at the bottom. Harvest your indigo again just before the first frost.

Problem: Article: Depending on your building medium, you may need a saw, craft blade, or heated wire foam cutter. First, use a ruler and a pencil to mark the places you need to cut. Next, carefully cut out each piece of the castle, using your design as a guide. It may be tempting to begin building after the first few pieces. However, if you cut all of the sections out before starting, it will be easier to finish the project. It may be useful to number each piece to help you keep track of where they belong. Before you assemble the castle, cut out any windows, turrets, or doorways. Use your template as a guide. Otherwise, you may cut in the wrong places. If needed, use your ruler to measure any accents before cutting them out or create a paper template. For example: Measure out and draw small 1 x 1 inch squares (2.5 x 2.5 centimeters) along the top of the wall. Next, cut out every other square to create turrets. Create a paper template of a window. Use this window as a guide to ensure that all your windows look the same. These sections are the foundation of your castle. Use an adhesive such as tape or glue (or a hammer and nail if you're working with wood) to assemble each large section. After they're assembled, place each section in its proper spot. Remember to use the correct adhesives for your medium. For example: For foam, use spray adhesive, hot glue, or tacky glue. Use wood glue, screws, and nails to connect pieces of wood. For cardboard, use white craft glue, glue sticks, and masking tape. These sections are the structural accents, such as towers, rooftops, and large gates. Completely assemble each section before connecting it to the larger base sections. When you have finished assembling these sections, your castle will be ready to decorate If you use tacky glue, spray adhesive, or wood glue, let the structure dry for a few hours before decorating it. If you want to create a large, complex landscape around your castle, you will need a large base. Alternatively, use a small base as a simple mount for your castle. You won't be able to add a landscape, but the base will help keep all of the pieces together. Attach the castle with an adhesive if you're building with cardboard. If the castle is wooden, attach it with nails or screws. Use a strong foam board base for foam or paper castles. Use a strong wood sheet as a base for wooden castles.
Summary: Cut out each piece. Cut any accents into the building pieces. Craft the larger sections. Assemble the smaller sections. Attach the castle to a base.

Problem: Article: Whenever you're trying to lose weight, even in a short amount of time, having a support group is helpful. Studies have shown that those people with support groups have better success with their weight loss long-term. Try asking friends or family members to help support you through your weight loss. They can be there to be motivating or to hold you accountable. Also consider asking them to join you on your weight loss diet. Many people are looking to lose some extra weight and it can be more fun to do it together. Compare against the measurements you took during the first week. Keep track of your results, and let the small victories keep you going. Keep weighing yourself as well. After one month, you might decide to lose another 5 pounds or to continue on with your diet for another month to see how much additional weight you can lose. Also keep track of your measurements. You might have toned down all over, but now want to focus on toning and building muscle in your body. A fun way to stay on track and to keep up motivation is by rewarding yourself. Setting up small incentives may help you stay on track or help you maintain your weight loss long-term. Set up small rewards when you meet smaller goals. For example, when you follow the first week of your new diet and exercise program, you might reward yourself with a few new workout songs. Set up bigger rewards when you meet larger goals. For example, you might buy yourself a new outfit when you lose the first 5 pounds. It's generally not recommended to reward yourself with food or dinners out when you're trying to lose weight. These types of rewards may work against your long-term goal. So your month is up. You've probably lost some weight and maybe even have gotten into better shape. Revisit your weight goal to see if you want to continue your current diet. Although you can make significant progress during one month's time frame, if you have more than 10 pounds to lose, you'll most likely need to continue your diet and exercise plan to see further weight loss. If you have met your goal, you may also consider continuing your healthy eating plan to maintain your results. Even if you've met your weight goal, you might want to consider keeping up with increased activity to help maintain your weight loss and physical fitness level. If you haven't met your weight goal yet, keep on going. Or, if you need to, make some changes to your diet and exercise plan to help induce more weight loss or make the plan fit better into your lifestyle.
Summary:
Build a support group. Retake measurements. Reward yourself. Revisit your goals.
