Q: The pie crust will never become truly hard; it will always be a little crumbly. Use a rubber spatula to help spread it around. Make sure that the mixture covers the entire bottom of the crust. This will give your pie an extra crunch. If you don't like nuts, you can omit this step. Again, use a rubber spatula to help spread the pudding evenly across the pie. Be careful not to disturb any of the previous layers. To make the peaks, gently tap the whipped cream with a rubber spatula. Don't worry about garnishing the pie just yet. It needs to set first. This will take at least 2 to 4 hours. Leaving the pie in the fridge overnight would be better, however. When covering the pie, take care not to smoosh the whipped cream topping too much. If you have some chopped pecans leftover, you can sprinkle those on top. If you aren't a fan of pecans, try sliced almonds instead. You can also drizzle some hot fudge, chocolate sauce, or caramel sauce on top. For an added touch, scatter some chocolate curls on top.
A: Take the pie crust out of the fridge, and set it down on the counter. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the pie crust. Consider adding cup (30 grams) of chopped pecans on top of the mixture. Pour the chocolate pudding mixture on top. Spread the rest of the whipped cream topping on top of the pudding. Cover the pie loosely, place it into the fridge, and wait until it sets. Garnish the pie, if desired, and serve.

Q: Each marker comes with a letter that tells you which color family it belongs to and a number code that represents the color saturation. An example of the color family codes is the letter "B" - any codes that begin with a "B" belong to the blue family. The number code representing saturation is a 2-digit number code. The first digit represents the vibrancy, and the second digit represents lightness. A marker with a "05" code would be a vibrant mid-tone, while a marker with a "99" code would be very dull and dark. Luckily, these markers are simple to store and are not easily ruined. Keep the caps on them when they are not in use, store them either vertically or horizontally, and try to keep them in a cool, dry place. If you accidentally leave your markers on a really hot window ledge or in a cold car, it is okay. The caps on each marker are airtight, so they are not easily destroyed by extreme temperatures. Both ends of the marker get ink from the same reservoir, so it is only necessary to add the ink to one end. The broad end is a larger surface for the ink to seep into, and this angle will help the ink drip down into the marker more efficiently. Be sure to refill your markers over a protected area. Cover the surface with paper towels, newspaper, or any other thick, disposable paper. Allow each ink drop to absorb into the marker before adding the next drop. The ink will run down the tip and into the marker. Be sure to add the correct color of ink to your marker. If you accidentally overfill the marker and the ink begins to run over, absorb the excess with a tissue or paper towel.
A: Choose the right Copic marker for your needs. Store Copic markers correctly to ensure quality and longevity. Refill the Copic marker by uncapping the broad end and holding it at a 45 degree angle. Add 15-20 drops of Copic ink onto the nib of your marker.

Q: A quick test for proper functionality is to rack the slide; make sure it goes completely back into battery (all the way forward). If it does not, the recoil spring may not be set properly. Ensure it is unloaded (see above), and pull the trigger, you should hear a click. Rack the slide again, or if the gun is a double-action, cock the hammer (or striker) again.
A: Reassemble the pistol and make sure all parts are functioning properly. Wipe down the whole gun and remove any excess oil. Swab the barrel with a dry cloth right before you intend to start shooting to remove any oil residue.

Q: Dinner party soups should be based on rich, fresh and unique ingredients. They should focus on the types of soups that people are less inclined to make everyday at home, just so that the experience is something more interesting. The following soups are ideal choices for a dinner party: French onion soup Gazpacho Chilled melon, ginger and mint soup Cream of asparagus soup Cream based soups Broccoli soup with Japanese wild mushrooms.
