How to make toast and jam.

1. Take as many slices of bread as you would like to eat out of the bag.
2. After ensuring that you're toaster is plugged in, make sure you check the settings (usually found on the side of the toaster) are what you like. The higher the setting, the crispier (more toasted) your bread will become.
3. Place slice(s) of bread into the toaster and push the lever down so the bread enters toaster.
4. While the toast is cooking (the time will varying depending on the setting you put the toaster on but it will usually be a few minutes) take out the jam you prefer and open the jar. Get a butter knife out.
5. When the toaster makes a popping noise, the toast should be back in view. Get out a plate and place the pieces of toast on the plate (be careful! The toast may be hot!). Once you've done this, use the butter knife to scoop up jam and spread out over the bread.
6. When you've put the amount of jam on the toast that you would like, you're all set to eat it!

How to make freshly squeezed juice.

1. Get a juicer out and ready, as well as a couple of oranges.
2. Make sure the orange is room temperature (not too hot, not too cold) and then roll it across a hard surface (such as a counter) until you feel the outer skin softening.
3. After rolling the oranges, cut the orange in half and place onto juicer. Twist the orange around allowing the juice to fall into the lower container.
4. Continue with other orangers until satisfied with quantity of juice.
5. Remove any seeds that may have made it into the juicer.
6. Pour juice into the glass (you may want to put it in the refridgerator for a couple of minutes to give it a nice chill) and then enjoy!

How to make a peanut butter banana sandwhich.

1. Get out two slices of white bread, a jar of peanut butter, and one banana. You will also need a butter knife.
2. Place the pieces of bread on a plate.
3. Get out a cutting board and cut the banana (after peeling) into slivers (not too thick).
4. Now use the butter knife to spread the desired amout of peanut butter onto one side of the bread (or both if you want a lot of peanut butter).
5. Next, take the cut up pieces of banana and spread them out over the peanut butter.
6. When happy with the amount of banana, cut the sandwhich in half (using the same knife) and go ahead and eat it!

^^Just made that one! O.o
