INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you're looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and relax to the max, choose a quiet destination without a lot going on. Some vacation properties are arranged in clusters that mean lots of noise, action, or partying from neighbors who may have a different idea about what makes a great vacation. You may even want to choose a place that caters to adults only, rather than families. Choose a luxury retreat or spa in order to enjoy extra amenities such as personal concierges and services like massages and facials. Some retreats also offer meditation guidance or yoga classes, while others boast hot tubs or rooftop gardens. Still others have captivating displays of antiques and art or stunning views. Choose a lake house in an area that offers cultural experiences, like art galleries, museums, and libraries. Other ideas include historical monuments, botanical gardens, bird watching, or walking tours. You'll be able to learn more about the local culture while enjoying leisurely days. A lakeside picnic is a great way to enjoy the scenery surrounding your destination. Pack your favorite eats or see if a local restaurant offers a picnic meal pick-up service. Simply spread out a blanket and kick back while enjoying a leisurely meal in a beautiful location. Use the dock or pier as a quiet spot to read a book, or use it as a diving platform or fishing perch. You could also skip rocks from it or view the wildlife. For those who love to paint, draw, or take photographs, the lake view at different times of the day can make for fascinating subject matter. Take advantage of the time away from the city to see the stars in all their glory. Set up a comfy area outdoors with pillows and blankets and look at the stars. You can even use an app, like Sky Map or Star Walk, to help you identify constellations and planets. Make a log book, journal, or scrapbook of each day's activities. Take plenty of photos to share once you return. If you return to the lake house regularly, these memories will build over the years and make for lovely reading through the generations.

SUMMARY: Choose a quiet location. Pick a luxury retreat. Look for cultural experiences nearby. Plan a sunset picnic. Lounge on the dock or pier during the day. Stargaze on a quiet night. Preserve the memories of your stay.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use a pair of tongs to hold half of the tortilla under the oil for 1 to 2 minutes until the shell becomes slightly firm and golden brown in color. Flip the tortilla over in the skillet and repeat. Repeat the process to prepare the remaining taco shells.

SUMMARY: Heat the cooking oil, or lard in a skillet on medium-high. Make the taco shells. Set the shell over a paper towel with the closed side facing up so the excess oil can drain.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you send or receive sexts, you can be charged with child pornography. This applies to sexts that happen on the phone or over the internet. Visit the Mobile Media Guard website to find the sexting laws and regulations in your state. If you receive any sexts, do not share them with any of your friends. Doing this can get you in even more trouble. Do not be terrified and let this stop you from notifying an adult. You will not automatically go to jail or get in trouble for receiving sexts, but you should be aware that this is very serious. Once you send a message or a photo, it is no longer in your control. You cannot control if the other person shares it with other people, posts it online, or saves the message forever. Your text messages, social media activity, and online activity are not private. Before you send the message, ask yourself, "Would I be fine with everyone seeing this?" If you do not want your parents, friends, family, future employer, or college admissions officer to see the message, you probably do not want to send it. Do not give into pressure to send messages to a person, even if you care about the person. Ignore their requests or just block them. If you receive a nude or semi-nude picture of another person, delete the message. If there happens to be a police investigation, the police can contact your cell phone provider and pull the records. The records will show that you deleted the message as soon as you received it. Deleting the picture immediately can keep you and any person you show the picture to out of legal trouble. If you show your teacher or parent the picture, both of you could be charged with child pornography. You can always tell an adult that you received a picture and that you deleted it. If someone is sexting you or pressuring you to send pictures or messages, contact a parent, police officer, or another trusted adult. Even if the person is another adult or teacher, you need to report it. Get an adult involved as soon as possible. If you talk to an authority figure (e.g. teacher, counselor, policeman, etc.) the law may require that your situation is reported to the authorities. You can get some anonymous advice by contacting Lifeline Crisis Chat (an online service) or calling the Kids Help Phone at 1-800-668-6868. You can only use the Kids Help Phone if you are 20 years old or younger.

SUMMARY: Do not send or receive messages. Think before you send a message. Immediately delete any inappropriate pictures you receive. Contact an adult you trust.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Many stains occur as a result of improperly following instructions. If you use too much fabric softener, for example, the residue could end up leaving stains. Concentrated fabric softener is more likely to stain than a diluted version. To dilute, pour your fabric softener into the dispenser, then pour in the same amount of water (such as one capful). The diluted softener won't leave a residue on your clothes. If your washing machine doesn't have a dispenser, wait until the machine has filled with water before adding the fabric softener. Pouring it over dry clothes will be more likely to leave a stain. It does the same job without leaving stains. Just pour a cup of white vinegar into the fabric softener dispenser when you do your laundry. The smell will go away after your wash and dry cycles are finished.

SUMMARY:
Follow the instructions on the back of your fabric softener. Consider diluting your fabric softener. Don't pour it directly onto your clothes. Use white vinegar as a natural fabric softener.
