Spoon 1 to 2 tsp (5 to 10 ml) of refried beans into each sope, then use the back of the spoon to smooth the beans into an even layer. While sope toppings typically vary by personal preference, including an initial layer of refried beans is common among many traditional recipes. Take a handful of romaine, iceberg, or green leaf lettuce and shred the leaves into thin strips. Spread a layer of the shredded lettuce over the refried beans. Lettuce is another traditional component of sope toppings, but it can also be skipped if you have an aversion to it or don't have any presently available. Nearly any shredded or cubed meat would work. Spoon a layer of the meat into the center of each sope, directly on top of the bed of lettuce.  Any prepared taco meat would be one option worth considering, especially if you have some leftover from another meal. You could also add chopped cooked chorizo, albondigas meatballs, or seasoned shrimp. Omit the meat if you'd prefer serving vegetarian sopes. After layering on the meat, you can add your favorite chopped vegetables, cheeses, and creams.  Some popular vegetable options include diced onion, diced avocado, diced bell pepper, diced chile pepper, and diced tomato. Similarly, you could add your favorite commercial salsa or homemade pico de gallo. Crumbled queso fresco is the most conventional choice of cheese, but if you can't find it, mild feta cheese is a good substitute. If you don't like the taste of these cheeses, shredded cheddar or a shredded Mexican-style cheese blend are other options worth considering. Similarly, Mexican crema is a type of heavy cream used as a garnish for many Mexican dishes, but if you don't have any, you could use sour cream instead. Once you've finished filling and garnishing the sopes, they're ready to eat. They don't store well, so you should enjoy them while they're warm and fresh.

One-sentence summary -- Spread the refried beans. Layer the lettuce. Add the meat, if desired. Top with your favorite garnishes. Enjoy.


Plan your videos out ahead of time; if you don't, there is a risk you'll ramble on or fail to engage the audience. Find some topics you think people are ,most interested in, but also throw in some unique ideas from your own head. Be sure to vary your videos. (For example, don't make every other video a makeup tutorial.) You can also occasionally collaborate with other Youtubers you do the same things as you.  Make sure to have good lighting (sunlight or a bright inside light) and good audio. Speak clearly and loudly. Keep the videos at around 6-8 minutes (or shorter). Try not to ramble; instead, get to the point and discuss the video topic. (This is why planning before shooting matters.) Use a program such as iMovie (Mac) or Windows Movie Maker (PC). Keeping things new and fresh is important and brings your viewers back frequently.

One-sentence summary -- Start making videos. Start with easy tutorials and keep them short and sweet. Edit your videos. Try to make a new video every one to two weeks.


Colon therapists perform colonics, or colon irrigation procedures, at their offices each day. Colonics can be somewhat uncomfortable, but they can be very effective in detoxifying the colon. Make sure you go to a colon therapist who is trained in practicing safe and sanitary procedures. If you are having colon issues, ask your doctor about a colonic and what to expect. During a colonic the colon therapist gently inserts a tube in your rectum. The tube is attached to a pump that forces water or some other liquid into your large intestine. After your colon is saturated, the therapist removes the first tube and carefully inserts a new tube. The therapist will massage your abdomen to expel the water and waste from your colon.  The therapist may repeat the process to fully cleanse the bowels. Up to 16 gallons (61 L) of water can be pumped and expelled during this procedure. Subsequent procedures may involve water treated with probiotics, herbs, or coffee, which help extract things from your colon. The longer that stool stays in your colon, the more time your body has to re-absorb toxins. Many of the changes listed above should help you to have a daily bowel movement if this is not happening for you currently.  If you have improved your diet and tried other options to help and are still not going once a day, it is a good idea for you to visit your doctor for further evaluation and advice. If you are having more than 2 bowel movements per day or your bowel movements are loose, consider consulting with a doctor before proceeding.

One-sentence summary -- Consider a colonic. Ask your doctor about the procedure. Make sure you have at least 1 bowel movement per day.


If you don't have a large enough pot to leave your bulbs outside during the winter, you can stash them in an enclosed space. A shed or garage that will stay cold but provide protection from snow and extreme cold are perfect. You can leave larger, well-insulated pots outside. The cold air actually helps the bulbs bloom later in the spring. As long as your bulbs are well-insulated, the outside air temperature won't matter much. Every few days, stick your finger into the potting soil around the bulbs. If the soil feels dry down to 1 in (2.5 cm), water the soil until water runs out of the drainage holes. After about 6 to 8 weeks in a chilly environment, you should see some green growth from your bulbs. If you're keeping your pot inside a garage or shed, you can move it outside once you see this growth. Too much sunlight can cause the bulb growth to wilt. An area with light shade gets about 60% shade and 40% sunlight and is the perfect place for your potted bulbs. Once your bulbs bloom, they'll need more water than they did when they were growing. Stick your finger into the soil to a depth of 1 in (2.5 cm) and check if the soil is dry. If it is, water the soil until water runs out of the drainage holes. Squirrels are likely to try to dig into your pots and get at the bulbs. You can cover the top of the pot with mesh wiring to protect the bulbs from squirrels and other critters. Bugs shouldn't be a problem during the winter, but if you start to notice some buzzing around, you can use a general insect repellent.

One-sentence summary --
Keep bulbs planted in small containers in a cold, protected space. Check the moisture of the soil regularly. Move the pot outside after you see new growth. Make sure the bulbs get some light. Check the water level daily after the bulbs bloom. Protect your plants from pests and disease.
