INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Follow the specific recipe you are using, including ingredient amounts, utensils and baking dishes, steps or instructions, oven temperatures, and baking times. Using a damp knife, cut the cake in sections or quarters. This allows the insides of the cake to cool down faster, rather than having the cake cool down from the outside in. When the cake pieces has reached room temperature or warm to handle, use your hands to crumble the cake in a large mixing bowl. You will want to break down any chunks, especially any hard corners. Start off with 1/4 cup of icing in the bowl. Use a wooden spoon to thoroughly incorporate the cake crumbs and icing together until you achieve a consistency of dough, as if you're making cookie dough. Add additional icing, if needed. Having the mixture chilled makes it easier for you to roll it into balls.

SUMMARY: Bake the cake. Slice the cake. Crumble the cake. Add the icing. Refrigerate the mixture.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If Benadryl leaves you wired, make sure to take your last dose for the evening a few hours before bedtime. Ideally, you would simply use a medication that didn't stimulate you, but sometimes there are not good alternatives available. The best you can do is hope that your response has calmed by bedtime. When you lie down, your blood doesn't have to fight against gravity to get to your nose and inflame the veins and tissues there; this is why it might seem like you have to sit up in bed every few minutes to clear up your nose when you’re congested.  Prop yourself up with pillows when you’re trying to get to sleep, and let gravity keep nasal inflammation at bay. A stuffy nose that impedes breathing is a common reason for being unable to sleep while you’re sick. Use a localized nasal spray right before bed, and reuse as necessary throughout the night to keep your nasal passages clear.  Decongestant nasal sprays reduce swelling in the sinuses and nasal tissues. They’re available both over-the-counter and by prescription, but should not be used over a prolonged period of time — three days at the most.  Salt-water nasal sprays don’t have compounds that reduce swelling, but are still effective for loosening mucus and making it easier to clear nasal passages through blowing your nose. These can be used as often as necessary. Nasal strips are a good alternative to sprays if you find that the sprays keep you awake. Sometimes, an illness makes you feel so bad that you lose your appetite for both food and drinks, but keeping your body hydrated is necessary for a speedy recovery. More important to sleep, though, is that a hot drink right before bedtime can soothe a sore throat, inhibit coughing, and clear up congestive mucus that would otherwise make it hard to breathe.   Avoid caffeinated drinks, like coffee or caffeinated tea, before bed. Find decaffeinated versions of your favorite hot drink. You can find teas that specifically help your body fight off colds at the grocery store, like teas with added Vitamin C or Echinacea.

SUMMARY: Don’t take medicine that makes you jittery before bed. Use the right posture for sleep when congested. Use a nasal spray before bed. Drink something hot right before bed.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The only way to keep a male dog calm is to keep him far away from a female dog in heat, as he will not be able to control his reactions to her. Put the male dog indoors or in a kennel if a female dog in heat is going to be close by outdoors, as this can help to prevent him from smelling her scent. Do not let the male dog go for walks with a female dog in heat or play with her. If the two dogs live in the same household, place as much distance as you can between the male and the female, as the male can smell and sense the female. Shut both dogs in separate rooms as far from each other as you can manage in your home. Keep the door shut and try not to let either dog out at the same time so they are not around each other. Make sure there are no toys or items in the male’s room that belong to the female, as they will contain the female’s scent. Smelling the item can then cause the male dog to whine, moan, and scratch at the door. If you do not have many available rooms or are tight on space, you can keep the female dog indoors in one room and have the male dog live outside until the female’s heat is over. Make sure the outdoor area has a fence that will keep the male dog from venturing out of your yard.  This is only an option if the weather outside is favorable and there are no local laws or ordinances in your area that prevent keeping dogs outside. Do not keep the female dog outdoors while she is in heat, as she may try to escape to find a mate. She may also attract male dogs in the area with her scent. Though you can try your best to keep the dogs separate at home, you may not be able to control the male dog’s aggressive behavior towards the female. If this is the case, its best to board the male at an offsite location like a kennel. Keep the dog in the kennel for the female’s entire heat, which can last around 3 weeks. You may prepare the male dog for boarding in a kennel by having him stay in the kennel for short visits to get used to the environment. You can then pre-book the kennel for the male dog so he can stay there while the female is in heat.

SUMMARY:
Keep the male away from the female until she is no longer in heat. Put the dogs in separate rooms on opposite sides of your home. Keep the female indoors and the male outdoors if space is limited in your home. Board the male in a kennel until the female’s heat is over.
