Article: Wash each quince in cool water. Stem and core the fruit and cut each one into chunks. Leave the peel intact. Place the pieces in a large soup pot or stew pot. Add enough water to cover all of the pieces by about an inch. Bring the water to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook the quinces for 45 minutes or so, until the pieces are soft.  To test whether the quince pieces are done, poke them with a fork. If the fork slides in easily, the quince is ready. Overcooking the quince will affect the flavor, so make sure it is simmering, not boiling, as it cooks. Use a potato masher to mash the quince into pulp, leaving no large lumps. The mashed quince should be slightly runny, like loose applesauce. Add a little water if it seems too thick. Set out a large bowl. Place a mesh strainer over it, and cover the strainer with a large piece of cheesecloth. Pour the quince pulp into the cloth-covered strainer. The juice will begin to run into to the bowl, while the pulp stays in the cloth. Let the pulp strain for about 4 hours.  Check the juice in the bowl every so often. You should end up with 4 to 5 cups after a 3 to 4 hours; if it doesn't seem as though you're getting enough juice, mix some water into the pulp and continue letting it drain. Use the back of a wooden spoon or a spatula to press the pulp when the straining time is nearing an end, to extract the last drops of juice.

Article: You may already have an idea of where you want your living wall to be, but you should take into account other considerations, like the weight of your living wall, the amount of sunlight your wall gets throughout the day (and year), and removal or disposal concerns.  Even if you're someone who has a green thumb, at some point one of your plants may need to be replaced. In this case, a living wall close to a door outside can prevent dirt or decayed plant matter from being tracked through your house. Take a stud finder and make sure your wall has weight bearing studs. Even the weight of a single plant with its roots saturated with water may be enough to pull your living wall free from wall anchors. Fastening your living wall firmly to two studs should prevent this. Imagine your living wall at different times of the year. For example, you may find that an outdoors living wall looks less desirable in the winter months if you live in a temperate climate. A living wall close to a large window might also be negatively impacted by cold during cold months. There are many companies that provide prefabricated wall-hanging frames in which you can plant your living wall. Some models are even freestanding, creating a kind of living wall partition in your home, which might be suitable if you do not have load bearing studs to fasten your living wall to. You can also fashion your own living wall simply enough with wood, plastic sheeting, and a plant friendly fabric. Use a pencil and a tape measure to mark the dimensions on the wall you intend your vertical garden to be and note these down. These measurements will be important whether you are buying a pre-made living wall or making your own. You might also want to mark the spot on the wall you've found studs. This way, when it comes time to hang your living wall, you can do so easily and without interruption.

Article: As your dog ages, it might have more trouble digesting food. Try feeding your dog a food that is specially formulated for seniors. These age-appropriate formulations are generally higher in fiber, which will improve gastrointestinal health. This can help improve your dog's appetite.  Switch to the new food gradually over five days, with a mixture of 20% new food and 80% old food on the first day. Feed your dog 40% new food and 60% old food on the second day, and 60% new food with 40% old food on the third day. On the fourth day, feed your dog 80% new food and 20% old food. By day five, you should be feeding your dog 100% new food. One way to get a senior dog to eat more is to add something tasty to your dog's food. For example, you might try pouring a little chicken broth on top of dry dog food. You can also try adding a small amount of canned dog food to the dry food. Cooking a meal for your dog occasionally can entice it to eat. The smell of food cooking in the kitchen can improve a senior dog's appetite. Try giving your dog a home-cooked meal of boiled chicken breast and rice. You can also feed your senior dog a homemade meal of boiled lamb and barley. Avoid cooking for your pet more than once a week, as home-cooked food is not nutritionally complete for a senior dog.
