How to Paint on Glass1. For doing glass painting, at first you take a piece of glass proportional to

the dimension of the proposed picture (thickness may vary according to the dimension of glass paintings; 2 mm or 3 mm). Then, clean thoroughly the surface with soap and water; wipe it with dry tissue paper and make the surface clean.

2. Place the proposed picture under the glass in reverse mode (then only you will get the actual glass painting when you frame the glass). As this is a reverse mode painting, always remember to place picture in reverse mode for tracing.

3. Start tracing the picture using the cone.4. After you finish outlining, let it remain for 15 to 30 minutes for drying. You

should only begin applying glass color after proper drying.5. After 30 minutes, you can start applying colors on the outlined portion of

the glass. You should never use both solvent based and water based glass painting colors in the same or adjacent areas.

6. Before filling glass color on adjacent areas, wait for a few minutes to get the previously filled color get dry. This will help you prevent different colors from getting mixed.

7. Show patience while doing glass painting; otherwise, you will spoil your paintings. Give time to dry colors when you use different colors for glass painting.

8. After filling glass colors on all areas of painting, let it remain for 12 to 24 hours for the paintings to get dry. Sometimes it will take 24 to 48 hours according to the temperature and number of layers given for your paintings.

9. Then, remove the picture placed under the glass; your glass painting work is over and can frame your painting.

A stupid man was sent by his father to sell salt. He first went to a mining area but nobody there wanted his salt. When he returned home, his father told him that if he had helped the miners to dig, they would have bought his salt.

The man next went to a house where a wedding was taking place. There he dug a huge hole. This made the people angry and they chased him away. When he returned home, his father told him that if he had beaten a drum and danced instead, the people there would have bought salt from him.

Then, he went to a village where there happened to be a fire. Rushing to the place, he started drumming and dancing, only to be thrown out by the

In the great city of Taipei, there lived a man called Lin and his wife. They had no children. Because of this, they were very unhappy. One day, they found a baby boy outside their door. He was wrapped in a blanket and crying. They took the baby into their house and called him Sau Ling. They loved him very much.

When Sau Ling was a young man, a fortune-teller came to the house. "You must send your son away," he said. "One day he will become a thief and cause you a lot of trouble."

Mr. and Mrs. Lin were very sad to hear this. They believed what the fortune-teller said. They gave Sau Ling some clothes and money and sent him away.

Several years later, Sau Ling was having a meal in an inn several miles from Taipei. He put his bag on the floor near his table. After finishing his meal, he picked up his bag. "That's strange!" he thought, "It feels so heavy." He looked inside. It was full of small gold bars. Then he realized that someone had taken his bag by mistake and left another bag, in its place.

That evening, a young man came to the inn, "Has anyone seen my bag?" he asked. Sau Ling was very honest. He returned the bag to him. The young man thanked him. "You are really very honest," he said, "I shall ask my father to give you a job." The young man's father was a rich merchant. He gave Sau Ling a good job. "But go home first," he said, "and take a holiday." Sau Ling returned to Taipei. Mr. and Mrs. Lin were delighted to see him again. The fortune-teller was also present. Sau Ling told them what had happened.

The fortune-teller did not know what to say. He left the house without saying a word. Mr andMrs. Lin never believed in fortune-teller after that. Sau Ling took them to live with him and they were very happy and contented until the end of their lives.

2. Add some flour and knead it. Add about 3 more cups of flour. It really depends on the humidity and

how exact the measurements are in the sponge step. Once it gets too tough to stir, flip it onto a clean floured surface. Now,

knead away, adding flour as you do so.

Knead the dough for 8 or 9 minutes. When you finish this part, put it back in the bowl and cover it with a

slightly damp towel.3. Let it rise.

Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes to an hour. The dough should be about doubled in size by the time it’s finished.

4. Divide the dough.Punch the dough down, then divide it into 3 parts. Spray the pans

and put the dough in. Let it rise again in the pans (covered).

5. Bake the dough. Preheat your oven to 375° F and put the loaves in. Bake them for about 25 minutes. The quick read thermometer should

read between 180 and 190 degrees. Pull the loaves out and place them on their sides on a rack, after a few seconds slide them out of the pans and onto the rack. Let them cool.

6. Enjoy it.You can add nuts, roll it out, and add cinnamon and raisins for
