The Art of Cooking & Savoir-Vivre

Today I will put my ”etiquette” hat on, again.

I listen to reporters and see commercials on TV or read articles and I am amazed at how we, the masses of people , are being introduced to a medical pill or a building or a language, as is the example below, instead of the other way around.

So, an example of the correct introduction, will be: “I would like to introduce to you this pill (give its name) which will make you lose 100 lbs in a day. Or in the case of the content below, it should read:

“ …the earlier you introduce a second language to children, the easier it is for them to master it.”

Hope the above examples will make you aware of how a correct introduction is being made

Unable to sleep decided to look at old papers. I found this advice and thought to share. For the second advice I will add: don’t promise anything when you are happy or had a little bit more to drink. Especially if the person you promise it to is a client!

Do not answer to anyone when you are angry
*
Don’t promise anything when you are happy
*
Never decide when you are upset

Read and re-read the above!
