Pay attention to how much alcohol your loved one consumes. Were they once only able to handle a few beers before becoming intoxicated, but now they can down an entire case? Needing more and more alcohol to get the same effects may indicate alcoholism. Another key sign that your loved one has alcohol dependence is them making several unsuccessful attempts to quit. Recall if you’ve heard them vow to stop drinking on multiple different occasions despite it never happening. Many alcoholics may be in denial about their situation and think they have it under control. They may even believe they can stop drinking, if only they tried. A common sign of alcoholism is a person lying about or trying to conceal their drinking habits. Maybe your loved one shows up at the bar an hour early so that others don't see how much they consume. They might keep a stash of alcohol where others can’t find it or pretend they are doing other things when really they are drinking. Have you ever seen your loved one drink early in the morning or mid-day to combat issues like shakiness, anxiety, depression, sweating, or headache? They may even need to drink alcohol to function normally because they are so used to having it in their system. People with alcohol dependence may start to experience withdrawal symptoms--like headache or shakiness--when the effects of alcohol wear off. When they drink again, these symptoms will disappear. One potentially dangerous consequence of chronic alcohol abuse is “blacking out” or forgetting things after consuming alcohol. During a blackout, the person may act as usual, but later be unable to recall what they said or did. If your loved one regularly blacks out after a night of heavy drinking, this is not normal. This is a sign of alcohol dependence.

Try mango, strawberry, peach, or vanilla yogurt, for instance. If you like tangy mango juice, stir equal parts of lemonade with the prepared mango juice. Taste the mango lemonade to see if you'd like to stir in sweetener, such as honey or simple syrup. To play around with flavors, try mixing the mango juice with limeade. Create a healthy mango smoothie by adding around 1 cup (175 g) of fresh fruit, such as strawberries, bananas, peaches, or blueberries to the blender with the mango juice ingredients.

Article: Once you think the child is ready to use the needles, cast on and knit a row of stitches for the child. Then, show the child how to insert the needle into the stitch to create a new knit stitch. Have the child watch you do this 5 to 7 more times. Go slowly and ensure that the child can see you insert the needle and loop the yarn around it. If the child wants to try knitting, hold the child's hands in yours so you're both holding the needles. Knit a few stitches together before letting the child hold the needles. Encourage the child as they try to insert the needle and loop the yarn. If the child doesn't want to try to knit without you holding the needles, don't force them to. You can always take a break and try again later. Once the child is successfully doing the knit stitch without any assistance, show them how to do the pearl stitch. Instead of inserting the needle inside and behind the existing stitch, show the child how the needle goes down and in front of the stitch. Slowly knit 5 to 7 purl stitches with the child watching you. If the child is having a hard time remembering how to handle the needle when making a knit stitch, sing this rhyme and show them the movements that go with it:  In through the front door (Insert the needle through the front of the stitch) Around the back (Loop the yarn around the needle) Out through the window (Use the needle to pull the loop through the stitch) And off jumps Jack (Slide the old stitch off of the needle).

Article: Many books grow moldy or musty due to living in a damp environment, such as a kitchen or bathroom. To combat your book’s smell, you must first remove it from the problematic environment. If your book is wet, be sure to dry it before using any of the deodorizing methods. Set your books inside of a sealed container, such as a piece of large tupperware, alongside an open canister of baking soda. The sealed environment will provide a way for the baking soda to absorb both moisture and odors from your book. Clay cat litter and cornstarch can also be used to absorb odor. Set your books aside in an area they will not be disturbed for 3-7 days. This will give the baking soda plenty of time to absorb both the moisture in the books, and the offending odor. Hardcover books may need to sit closer to seven days, as the cover can hold in more moisture. Check for any remaining smells or damp pages. If your book is still damp or still contains unpleasant smells, place your materials back into your sealed container for 2-4 more days. To prevent further molding or mildewing, opt out of storing your books in more humid areas. Cookbooks, for instance, can be stored in a dining room instead of a kitchen, and bathroom interest books can be set on a shelf just outside of the bathroom. Avoid storing books in areas such as the basement and attic, as most basements and attics are prone to encouraging mold growth and developing excessive moisture contents.
