1. In the command prompt, run "mongod", which will start up your local database server
1. While MongoD is running, open a second command prompt and navigate to the mongodb install folder
1. In the second command prompt, run "mongo", which allows you to edit the database
1. Type `use homebrewery` to create the homebrewery database. You should see `switched to db homebrewery`
1. Type `db.brews.insert({"title":"test"})` to create a blank document. You should see `WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })`
1. Search in Windows for "Advanced system settings" and open it
1. Click "Environment variables", find the "path" variable, and double-click to open it
1. Click "New" and paste in the path to the mongodb "bin" folder
