Fill the pot about of the way with water. Turn the burner to high heat so the water boils. The water should hover about half an inch below the metal bowl. Once the water boils in the pot, turn off the heat. Then, pour the white chocolate chips into the bowl. Use a kitchen towel to hold the hot bowl with one hand. Don't worry if the chips don't seem to melt fast at first. After a few stirs, they should start to melt. You can add a spoonful of vegetable shortening to speed up the process. You want it to fall off the spoon easily. Leave the chocolate in the warm bowl as the heat will keep the chocolate smooth and melted.

One-sentence summary -- Place a deep pot with a handle on the stove. Take a metal bowl and set it on the pot with water. Stir the chips as they start to melt. Check the consistency of the chocolate once it has melted. Take the chocolate off the heat and place the bowl next to the oil or powder colors.

Q: You will get a notification once the merchant has spawned. Once this happens, go to your house/houses and look for him there. To talk to an NPC, stand next to them and right-click on PC, or press Circle on Playstation, B on Xbox, and A on Nintendo consoles. Place the bug net in your hot bar, and equip it. Then place the cursor on a critter and press the attack button to catch it. Critters are found all over the Terraria overworld, but you'll want to focus on catching worms, snails, sluggies, fireflies, and buggies due to their high bait power.
A: Talk to the merchant. Catch critters and butterflies with the bug net.

Article: 102 is 100. 103 is 1000. The powers 2 and 3 are the base-10 logarithms of 100 and 1000. In general, ab = c can be rewritten as logac = b. So, saying "ten to the power of two is 100" is equivalent to saying "the base-ten log of 100 is two." Each logarithmic table is only usable with a certain base (a in the equation above). By far the most common type of log table uses base-10 logs, also called the common logarithm. Multiply two numbers by adding their powers. For example: 102 * 103 = 105, or 100 * 1000 = 100,000. The natural log, represented by "ln", is the base-e log, where e is the constant 2.718. This is a useful number in many areas of math and physics. You can use natural log tables in the same way that you use common, or base-10, log tables. Let's say you want to find the base-10 log of 15 on a common log table. 15 lies between 10 (101) and 100 (102), so its logarithm will lie between 1 and 2, or be 1.something. 150 lies between 100 (102) and 1000 (103), so its logarithm will lie between 2 and 3, or be 2.something. The .something is called the mantissa; this is what you will find in the log table. What comes before the decimal point (1 in the first example, 2 in the second) is the characteristic. This column will show the first two or, for some large log tables, three digits of the number whose logarithm you're looking up. If you're looking up the log of 15.27 in a normal log table, go to the row marked 15. If you're looking up the log of 2.57, go to the row marked 25. Sometimes the numbers in this row will have a decimal point, so you'll look up 2.5 rather than 25. You can ignore this decimal point, as it won't affect your answer. Also ignore any decimal points in the number whose logarithm you're looking up, as the mantissa for the log of 1.527 is no different from that of the log of 152.7. This column will be the one marked with the next digit of the number whose logarithm you're looking up. For example, if you want to find the log of 15.27, your finger will be on the row marked 15. Slide your finger along that row to the right to find column 2. You will be pointing at the number 1818. Write this down. For 15.27, this number is 7. Your finger is currently on row 15 and column 2. Slide it over to row 15 and mean differences column 7. You will be pointing at the number 20. Write this down. For 15.27, you will get 1838. This is the mantissa of the logarithm of 15.27. Since 15 is between 10 and 100 (101 and 102), the log of 15 must be between 1 and 2, so 1.something, so the characteristic is 1. Combine the characteristic with the mantissa to get your final answer. Find that the log of 15.27 is 1.1838.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Understand what a logarithm is. Identify the characteristic of the number whose log you want to find. Slide your finger down to the appropriate row on the table using the leftmost column. On the appropriate row, slide your finger over to the appropriate column. If your log table has a mean difference table, slide your finger over to the column in that table marked with the next digit of the number you're looking up. Add the numbers found in the two preceding steps together. Add the characteristic.

Article: Wash each quince in cool water. Stem and core the fruit and cut each one into chunks. Leave the peel intact. Place the pieces in a large soup pot or stew pot. Add enough water to cover all of the pieces by about an inch. Bring the water to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook the quinces for 45 minutes or so, until the pieces are soft. To test whether the quince pieces are done, poke them with a fork. If the fork slides in easily, the quince is ready. Overcooking the quince will affect the flavor, so make sure it is simmering, not boiling, as it cooks. Use a potato masher to mash the quince into pulp, leaving no large lumps. The mashed quince should be slightly runny, like loose applesauce. Add a little water if it seems too thick. Set out a large bowl. Place a mesh strainer over it, and cover the strainer with a large piece of cheesecloth. Pour the quince pulp into the cloth-covered strainer. The juice will begin to run into to the bowl, while the pulp stays in the cloth. Let the pulp strain for about 4 hours. Check the juice in the bowl every so often. You should end up with 4 to 5 cups after a 3 to 4 hours; if it doesn't seem as though you're getting enough juice, mix some water into the pulp and continue letting it drain. Use the back of a wooden spoon or a spatula to press the pulp when the straining time is nearing an end, to extract the last drops of juice.
