You boil the pasta till al dente then put in into a pan and put shredded cheddar cheese until it's melted?

Please tell me how? I tried searching online but they have complicated recipes with a lot of additional ingredients but I just want regular mac and cheese?

I have never cooked a meal before in my life, but now that it's the holidays and I actually have time away from school, I'd like to make something for my family. We're vegetarian so we don't eat fish or eggs or anything, but we do eat dairy products. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I am a vegetarian, however I do not enforce what i have chosen on to other members of my family, especialy my son. I let him eat meat but I feel that make me no less of a vegetarian.

what i want to know is why SOME vegetarians and vegans have to enforce this onto others? and what honstetly does this achieve?
I love animals to but some of these past questions are animal activists wanting some sort of revenge on the world full of meat eaters. I believe in balance otherwise we will be over popualted with cows ect and can you imagine the stink,. (mind you would probably be able to fuel a car just on the smell)

Restaurant baked potatoes have a crusty salted outer peel, full of flavor and the potato is uniformly soft. Mine have tough, chewy outer peels, just not the same. I have tried wiping with oil and rolling in salt, but it hasn't worked. There has to be some cooking trick that places like Applebee's, Chile's, Longhorn, etc. use to make their potatoes consistently good (it's not like they hire world-class chefs).

I am confused about the proofs of alcohol, so this might be an idiotic question, but considering the proofs of alcohol, would it be the same to drink one shot of an 80% proof alcohol (vodka) as drinking 8 drinks of something that is 10%? that sounds really wrong, so correct me and tell me what is right. I am not underaged I just don't drink that much and was wondering.
