Lat answer-Kattttttt......you are so good!!!
Fill the 11-oz. and 5-oz. containers from the 24-oz. container.
This leaves 8oz. in the 24-oz. bottle. Next empty the 5-oz. bottle by pouring the contents

Fill the 13-oz. bottle from the 11-oz. container
(with 8 oz.) and leave the remaining 3 oz. in the 11-oz. bottle.

oz. container empty.

bottle leaving 8 oz. in the 13-oz. bottle. 
Finally, pour the contents of the 5-oz. bottle into the 11-oz. bottle, giving 8 oz. in this container.

You have three boxes; one hold 6 apples, the second holds 9 apples, and the third 21 apples.
Your task: to move the apples in two and three moves to get exactly 12 apples in each box. One move consists of doubling the number of apples of the receiving box.

If im allowed to answer:




9+9=18 from 21-9=12.
18-6=12 from 18-12=6

Three move method
move0: 21  9  6
move1: 15  9  12
move2:  6  18  12
move3: 12  12  12

Hmmm....these are some brain teasing questions.

Chuck, a bestselling author of romantic fiction, had suspected for some time that his wife Eva was unfaithful, though he had no proof. One afternoon, while Chuck was working on his latest bodice-ripper, Eva mentioned that she intended to go to the movies and would be out for a few hours. As Eva went to the door, Chuck looked at her pensively, then resumed his work. Three hours later, Eva returned, took her coat off and asked Chuck weather he wanted some coffee. When she returned from the kitchen, Chuck asked her to sit down as he wanted to talk to her.
“Eva,” he said, “I want a divorce.”

Can you figure out how he knew?

When she took off her coat, he could see that her blouse was on inside out?

She had a love bite on her neck.

blue

My guess was that she was naked underneath the coat
but the answer is->
On Eva`s way out, Chuck had noticed a run in her stocking. When she went to the kitchen for coffee, he noticed that the run was on her right leg.

I do like both of your answers,Blue and Katt.
Naughty naughty...

Here is a new riddle!

I know a thousand faces and count the tallied heads.
Feasting bright upon the eyes of the many who have died.
Wielding well a mighty power who hath but humble stature.
Masses fall upon their knees to scarce behold my only side!

Very tricky Nan.  I'm sure Katt will get it.

blue

You have such faith.... I have a couple of ideas, but still trying to get all the parts to fit one of them.... how about you wrestle with them too blue?

1) the moon
or
2) pennies

I am on a teeter totter here... please get on the other end and balance it! 

Sure thing Katt - the moon or pennies.  By pennies, I assume you mean coins.

It could be the moon but "Feasting bright upon the eyes of the many who have died" doesn't quite fit but then again, does it fit for pennies?  I guess if the pennies have faces of dead people on them, it could be that.

Lets go with pennies - it fits better.

Well done...again. 

blue

I think you are right blue... pennies or as you say coins... the dead people thing is that in some cultures coins are placed on the eyes of the dead while they are being prepared for burial... so that fits very well...

Ok Nan... we are ready for you now! 

katt

Yes! yes! coins are the answer,well done guys!!!

Let's see what I can come up with next.heh heh.

My first is in blood and also in battle,
My second is in acorn, oak, and apple,
My third and fourth are both the same,
In the center of sorrow and twice in refrain,
My fifth starts eternity ending here,
My last is the first of last, Oh dear!

What am I?

Well nan you got me over the BARREL with this one!

katt

Barred?

blue

Awww Blue...you re too cute! I didn't know the last letter either until Katt gave it away.:)
BARREL is the answer for this one.

This darksome burn, horseback brown,
His rollock highroad roaring down,
In coop and in comb the fleece of his foam
Flutes and low to the body falls home.

Hopefully this one is not too easy. 8'|

Last answer is ----Ale/Beer

Okay let's try another riddle shall we?

Thirty white horses on a red hill,
First they champ,
Then they stamp,
Then they stand still.

Hey Nan! Thanks for a new riddle.... I'm thinkin' Teeth, but not sure because people mostly have 32 or if they get the wisdom teeth pulled 28... but I can't think of anything else it might be... so I am going with teeth???

You could well be right...again...Katt.  I can't think that it would be anything else.

blue

I still don't know blue... the 30 instead of 28 or 32 is still bugging me... sorry if I answer too many of these... I should not answer till others have a chance to answer them.
