Q: Move the torch to your quick slot, select it, and click the ground or wall. A torch can go on any solid, opaque surface, and will burn indefinitely. You can pick up the torch again by "breaking" it, or by breaking the block attached to the torch. Most mobs (enemies) cannot appear in brightly lit locations, although they can wander into torch-lit areas without harm. Here are a few examples of minimum torch placements to prevent monsters from appearing: In a one block wide tunnel, place torches at eye level every 11th block. In a two block wide tunnel, place torches at eye level every 8th block. For a large room, place torches in a row on the ground every 12th block. At the end, walk back along the row 6 blocks, walk left or right 6 blocks, and start another row. Repeat until you cover the floor in these staggered rows. When exploring caves or going on long overnight journeys, place torches to find your way back. In caves, keep these only on your right as you go further in. This way, if you get turned around, you know you're heading back to the surface if the torches are on your left. Torches aren't all that bright, but they are still visible from pretty far away. Build a tall tower of dirt or other materials, then cover the top in torches. Now you can use this as a landmark if you ever lose track of your base or other important location.
A: Place torches on floors or walls. Light areas fully to prevent mob spawning. Plant torches to guide your journey back. Make landmarks.

Article: Saffron has a flavor profile similar to vanilla: sweet and musky. The two typically work well together, but they are not similar enough to serve as strict substitutes for one another. Turmeric and safflower are often used instead of saffron to give foods a similar color, but the flavors are much different. . Harvesting saffron is a labor-intensive process, so if you want high-quality saffron, prepare yourself for an expensive purchase. Examine the saffron before you buy it. Good saffron consists of fine, evenly sized threads that are deep red in color with an orange tendril on one end and a trumpet-shaped flute on the other. If the tendril looks yellow, the saffron is likely real but of slightly poorer quality. Additionally, a stronger scent also indicates a stronger, better flavor. In comparison, fake saffron may look like shredded, irregular threads with disconnected tendrils and pieces of bark mixed into the package. The scent may not be very strong and usually smells like bark. Simply put, whole saffron has a stronger flavor than ground saffron. Ground saffron can be a good substitute if you cannot find or afford the whole spice, though. If you do decide to buy ground saffron, go through a reputable spice seller. Less honest sellers may cut saffron with other spices, including turmeric and paprika, to reduce the overall cost. Saffron doesn't spoil, but it will gradually lose its flavor in storage. Proper storage can preserve the saffron for longer periods, however. Wrap the saffron threads in foil and place them in an airtight container. Store them in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months. For longer storage, keep the container of saffron in your freezer for up to 2 years. Note that ground saffron should be used within 3 to 6 months and stored in an airtight container and a cool, dark place.

Article: Since the bulb of the lily would be difficult to plant in cold, hard soil, wait until after the last frost date before transferring it outdoors. Consult local nurseries or the Old Farmer's Almanac to find out the last frost date for your area. Take a shovel or trowel and dig a 6 in (15 cm) deep hole for each Easter lily you want to plant. The deep hole will give the plant space to develop its root system. If there are any wilting or dead flowers left on the Easter lily, pluck or trim them off. Place the plant into the hole. Avoid cutting off the stem and leaves of the lily until fall. Spread well-draining soil around the sides of the lily to fill in the hole. Mound soil around the stem of the plant and press down firmly to remove any pockets of air. Water the lily immediately after you plant it and water it thoroughly every day for at least 1 week. After a week, you can begin watering the plant every few days until the root system is established. Check the soil around the lily if your region is going through a dry period. Water the plant to keep the soil moist.
