1. do not spare the time spent
"well, why do i need this empty talk? " - some people think and are wrong. most of the conversations just start about something useless in order to have fun, find common topics, get to know a better person, or just kill time.
communication is not the thing that is supposed to be beneficial. but you cannot do all the work, and sometimes you need to relax and spend time in the company of another person. so learn to dilute little by little the productive pastime with ordinary conversations about nothing.
in addition, sometimes a good conversationalist can come up with such interesting and useful ideas that would ripen in your head for many years to come.
at the moment, my favorite dish is pelmeni. pelmeni- this is a dish in the form of boiled products from unleavened dough stuffed with minced meat or fish, caught in russian cuisine from the urals.
the most important property of dumplings is a very thin shell of dough. historically, this is explained quite simply - in those places where dumplings were popular, it was much easier to get meat than flour or eggs. therefore, the fillings did more than the shells. and the size of the pelmeni was just such that it was convenient to eat them one at a time. this distinguishes pelmeni from their central asian and caucasian relatives, which are characterized by large sizes.
the whole pelmeni’s "family" has one thing in common - they are loved almost all over the world.
