In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This is the trickiest part of signaling the girl you like with a third party. Even your close friends may have different ideas of what is "helpful," and in some cases they may say too much when trying to help you. If you plan on trusting someone else to help play matchmaker between you and the girl you like, it's best to be honest and clear with your helper. You might tell that person: "There's this girl I really like, but I'm super shy telling her how I feel, and I need some help. I was wondering if you could ask her if she's interested in anyone or if she is seeing someone?" "Please don't tell anyone about this, but I really like this girl. I'm having the hardest time telling her how I feel. Could you help me figure out if she likes me?" The more often she hears good things about you, the more likely she is to associate you with those positive traits. You might have a close friend that you trust bring up your talents, skills, and accomplishments around her. You should be careful when selecting the person who will brag about you to her. Some people may go over the top, which could be a more obvious signal that you like her than you want. Choose a few of your best characteristics and instruct your friend to talk about them. For example, you might ask your friend, "Could you mention the soccer game that I won for our team last night to the girl I like?" If her friends like you, it's much more likely that she'll like you as well. Additionally, if her friends like you, they'll say good things about you to her when you're not around. In some cases, girls may be worried that you won't fit in well with her life or friend group. Gain her friends' approval by helping out. You could offer help on homework in a subject you know well, if you're handy you could offer to fix something you notice is broken, you could treat her friends to a snack, and so on. In some cases, this might cause jealousy between the girl you like and her friends. This might make her think of you in a more romantic light, but it might also backfire and cause her to get angry at you. To prevent jealousy, whenever you do something nice for her friends, you might also say something like, "Of course I'll help you out. You're one of Sarah's best friends, and she's the best. Any friend of hers is a friend of mine."
Summary: Rely on trusted individuals to gather and transmit information. Have a trusted individual talk you up around her. Get the seal of approval from her friends.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you'd like, you can also line two baking sheets with parchment paper. The parchment paper is not absolutely necessary, but it will make cleaning up easier. Measure out the oil into a small bowl, Then, use a basting brush (or something similar) to brush the oil onto the tortillas. The oil will help the tortillas turn crispy when you bake them. If you'd like to make smaller strips, cut the tortillas into quarters. At this time, you can also put the remaining tortillas into stacks as well, so that they will be ready for you. You can do this using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter. These narrow strips are perfect for tossing onto a soup or salad. If you'd like to make something more chip-like that you can eat with salsa (or other dips), cut the tortillas into 1-inch (2.54 centimeters) wide strips instead. If you cannot fit all of the strips onto the baking sheets, save them for a separate batch. You don't want the strips to be clumped up or covered, or they won't bake evenly. You can bake them one baking sheet at a time, or you can put both baking sheets into the oven. If you are baking both sheets at the same time, rotate them halfway through baking. This ensures that both sheets get baked the same amount. Once the strips are baked, pull the baking sheets out of the even, and set them down on the counter or stove. Shake some salt onto the strips; how much salt you add is entirely up to you! They make great toppings for salads, soups, and beans. You can also serve the wider ones on their own with some dip.
Summary: Preheat your oven to 350F (177C). Brush the tortillas with vegetable oil. Stack 2 to 3 tortillas on top of each other. Slice the tortillas into to -inch (0.64 to 1.27 centimeters) thick strips. Spread the strips in a single layer on two baking sheets. Bake the strips in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Season the strips with salt. Let the strips cool on the baking sheet, then serve them.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Baking soda makes a great natural stain remover. It's gentle enough to use on almost any type of fabric. Mix a tablespoon of baking soda with enough water to make a thick paste. Alternatively, mix the baking soda with hydrogen peroxide or white vinegar. Baking soda paste is best used on fabrics that don't require dry cleaning. You'll have to rinse it away when you're finished, so the clothes will get wet. Baking soda paste works well to remove stains caused by oil, grease, dirt, food, and many other substances. Lightly rub it into the stain. Make sure it covers the entire stained area, overlapping the edges. Allow it to sit on the stain for 15 minutes. If the stain is on sturdy clothing, you can scrub it using an old toothbrush. Scrub the baking soda into the stain to make sure it can treat all of the fibers. This method is fine to use on denim and thick cotton. Don't scrub the baking soda into delicate fabric. Silk, satin and other thin fabrics could warp when scrubbed. Run it under warm running water to rinse away the baking soda along with the stain. For more delicate fabrics, you can wipe away the baking soda using a dampened cloth. Some difficult stains require more than one treatment. Apply a second round of paste to the stain. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then rinse it away. If the stain remains, you may need to use a chemical stain remover or take the item to be professionally cleaned.
Summary:
Make a baking soda paste. Apply the paste to the stain. Rinse away the baking soda. Repeat the treatment if necessary.
