Problem: Article: Grease a baking dish with room-temperature butter. Sprinkle a light amount of flour onto the greased pan, covering completely. Pick a pan that is big enough. Brownies are traditionally flat, meaning that you should pick a bigger pan over a smaller one. Smaller pans will necessitate more time in the oven. Alternately, melt the butter in a microwave until just fully melted. Let cool. Add the sugar, mixing thoroughly. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, beating until just incorporated. Mix the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Mixing the dry ingredients completely before transferring into the wet ingredients will cut down on the amount of time you mix the batter. The less the batter is mixed, the creamier and fluffier your brownies will turn out. Mix until just barely incorporated. Spread batter evenly. Perform the toothpick test to check for doneness. Leave brownies to cool for at least 10 minutes. Once cooled, dust them with confectioners' sugar. Dust an even layer across the brownies. . Enjoy!
Summary: Preheat the oven to 300° F (150° C). Melt the butter over low heat. Add the remaining wet ingredients. Mix the dry ingredients, in a separate bowl. Incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Pour the brownie batter into the greased and floured pan. Cook in the oven at 300° F for 30 minutes. Cool the brownies. Cut the brownies

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Dread locks should dry with the braids in place to help the crinkles set. Start by washing your hair as you normally would. When blow drying your hair, only get it about 80% dry. Go into the process with your hair just slightly damp. Take an elastic hair tie big enough to fit around your head. Something like a sweatband or hair band works well. Pull the hair tie over your head so it rests around your neck. Then, push all of your dreads stuck under the hair tie out. Pull your hair tie upward, pushing all your dreads back as you go. When you're done, the hair tie should be loosely wrapped around your dreads, securing them away from your face. The hair tie does not need to be secured tightly. You're going to be removing three dreads from the tie at a time, so it's important it remains loose enough to easily remove your hair. One by one, carefully pull out three of your dreads from your hair tie. If you accidentally dislodged more than three dreads, simply push the unneeded dreads back into your hair tie. Take the three dreads you pulled out of your hair. Braid them together into a tight braid. When you're done, push the braid back under the hair tie. If you want, you can secure the braid with a hair tie. This may not be necessary for all dreads, as some hair tends to stay together on its own when braided.

SUMMARY: Start with damp hair. Secure your hair with a large hair tie. Pull three dreads loose. Braid the dreads together.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: After you’ve cooked the spices into the vegetable mixture, sprinkle ½ cup (63 g) of all-purpose flour into the pot. Stir well so all of the ingredients are coated with the flour, and turn the heat up to medium-high. Cook the mixture for approximately 1 minute, or until the flour browns. Once the flour has browned, add a 14.5 ounce (411 g) can of diced tomatoes to the pot. Allow the tomatoes to cook until they begin to release their juices, which should take approximately 2 minutes. Make sure to stir the mixture occasionally to ensure that it heats evenly. After the tomatoes have released their juices, add 4 cups (946 ml) of chicken broth to the pot. Stir it in well, and cover the pot. Turn the heat to high and allow the mixture to come to a boil, which should take approximately 5 minutes. It’s best to use low-sodium chicken broth because salt has already been added to the dish.
Summary: Stir in the flour until the mixture browns. Add the tomatoes and cook for a couple of minutes. Mix in the broth and bring the mixture to a boil.

Don’t allow yourself to ruminate on things without doing so intentionally.  Make a conscious effort to focus on things specifically and not let your mind wander.  It’s easy to get caught up in your feelings about the events of the day, personal relationships or stresses at work, but practice making yourself focus only on subjects you want to think about. Being able to control your focus on things going on outside of you is the first step to being able to control your focus on what is going on within you. Be mindful of when your mind wanders and when it does, focus to bring your attention back to what you choose to pay attention to. Mindfulness and awareness are similar, but aren’t quite the same thing.  Knowing that you are speaking to someone is not the same as being mindful of how you speak to them.  Pay attention to the things that you do and say, as well as your motivations.  Most people travel through life on a form of auto-pilot, just acting and reacting as the need arises. Paying attention to how you act is a good way to take a stock of who you are and who you want to be. Paying attention to what you are doing and where you are focused is all part of giving what you do purpose.  Purpose can be a wide variety of things that includes the purpose of focusing your attention, or being present as you accomplish tasks you set out to do.  Being aware of who you are, what you’re thinking, and what you’re doing to help you identify the purpose of your actions. Focus your attention on what you are doing, what you are feeling, and what is going on in the present moment.
