However, make it clear that you don't want to feel pressured to take sides. Ask your parents to refrain from making disparaging comments about your other parent. However, since you are older and less impressionable, this may not be as big of an issue. You'll need to work this out for yourself. Discuss this approach with your siblings. Remember that previous divorces, especially where there were custody battles, may have made your parents bitter and offensive about the divorce process. They may have experienced divorce as children, and therefore have certain worries and fears about their own divorce based on that childhood experience. Ask your siblings to do the same. Ask that everyone remain calm and accepting of what is happening; remind people that this intimate relationship is between two people and as much as all of you might want things to be different, it is inappropriate for any of you to goad your parents into legal spats. You may be needed to help sort and move property. You may be needed for moral support. You and your siblings may need to help a parent arrange for lawn care, help with laundry, etc. if that was something your other parent maintained. After divorce, the status of these documents changes and they must be updated for the protection of all concerned. Your parents may have avoided that conversation with you since you were the child and assumed the spouse would take care of those arrangements. Find out where your parents want to be buried. Ask if there are family burial plots that have been purchased. If the divorce will exclude a parent from the plot ask the parent where he/she would like to be buried. If either parent has medical problems you should try to attend a doctor's appointment with that parent. Get an understanding of the condition, the medications and make sure the doctor's office changes the next of kin listed on the file. Make sure you spend time with each parent and do your best not to exclude the other parent from holiday plans or other events. Perhaps move family gatherings to your home or siblings house instead of your parents' home. If you do visit a parent who doesn't cook, offer to cook something there or make it potluck. Consider having your mother over for lunch on a holiday and your father over for dinner.

Use a computer to create your design, then print it out on standard printer paper. You can make your design using words or images, but images with higher contrast transfer better. To achieve this, print your design in black and white. Any image can be used, but clear images that don't have a lot of small details transfer better. The image should be small enough to fit on the cup. Resize it as needed before printing it. You can use a program like Photoshop or GIMP to design images or transfer photos. Trim the paper down to size. If you printed multiple images on the same sheet of paper, separate them now. Cut around each image, but leave a white border about 1in (2.5cm) wide on each side. Take a sheet of clear contact paper and peel the backing off of it. This will expose the adhesive backing, so be careful around the images you trimmed earlier. Place the contact paper on a flat surface, leaving the adhesive side up, then set the image on top of it. You can place your design anywhere on the paper. If it doesn't go on straight, that's okay. You don't need any special tools to complete the transfer. Simply press down on the design with your finger, then rub it. Go over the image a few times to ensure the areas with the most ink transfer properly. Pick up the contact paper, flip it over, and trim it down with a sharp pair of scissors. This time, you want to remove any white paper still around the design. When you are done, you should be left with what you want to transfer to your cup. The design will remain stuck to the contact paper. Don't remove it yet. Your design needs to be small enough to fit on the cup. If you printed a big design, you may need to trim it a little to wrap it over the cup's surface. Use a bowl that is big enough to contain the entire piece of paper. Fill it with warm, not boiling, water. Flatten the paper against the bottom of the bowl, then let it soak undisturbed. If you printed multiple designs, you can place them all on top of each other in the same bowl. After soaking, your design should be transferred to the contact paper. Remove the paper from the water, then gently rub the back end with your fingers. The back is the adhesive you stuck the design to earlier. Be very gentle when rubbing the paper. Too much force can smudge the ink. The paper may begin falling off before you get it out of the water. As long as you can see your design on the contact paper, this is fine. Find a safe spot, such as a countertop. Set the contact paper on it, checking that the correct side is on top. Let the paper dry fully before you attempt to remove it. The adhesive won't feel sticky right now, but that will change as it dries. Now get your cup to transfer the image to it. Carefully pick up the contact paper, keeping the adhesive side up. Align it against the cup's side, then push it flat. Then you can enjoy a cold drink with the cup sporting your special design. If the adhesive doesn't stick, make sure it is completely dried.

Put cup (60 mL) of chicken broth (you may choose a reduced-sodium variety, if desired), teaspoon (0.5 mL) of onion powder, teaspoon (0.5 mL) of garlic powder, and a dash of pepper into a frying pan. Stir to combine, and heat the mixture until it boils. Mix in 5 ounces (150 g) of washed and trimmed fresh arugula. Make sure the arugula is evenly coated in the broth and spice mixture by using tongs to toss the greens in the liquid. Keep the pan on the burner for another minute or two to allow the arugula leaves to wilt. If needed, add another splash of chicken broth to keep the arugula wet. Stir the mixture occasionally. All you need to do now is turn off your burner, remove the pan from heat, and serve the arugula. You can have it as a side dish with a meal, put it on mashed potatoes, or use it as a salad topping.
