A 30-day positive affirmation journey with Rose

Day 20

1富强粉分几次加入清水，用筷子搅拌成絮状
2揉成面团，盖上湿布醒面
3西葫芦洗净去皮，用擦子擦成丝，要转着擦，当露出瓜瓤就转动一下，逐渐留出柱状的瓜瓤，丢弃不用（我是图省事，也可以切开挖去瓜瓤后再擦丝）
4西葫芦丝中撒少许盐，5-10分钟会杀出不少水
5捞起一团西葫芦丝用双手挤出水分，分次直至全部挤完6肉馅加料酒、生抽、香油、胡椒粉、五香粉、盐、葱姜碎，拌匀调味
 7将西葫芦丝加入肉馅中拌匀
 8面团揉匀，搓长条，下剂子
 9将剂子擀成中间厚，周边薄的饺子皮
 10对着光可以看出中厚边薄的效果
 11取一个饺子皮在中间放上饺子馅
12对折，捏出花纹，一定要捏紧，不然一煮就破
13包好的饺子放在盘子上等待下锅，盘子上事先撒干面防粘
14水烧开下饺子，盖盖，水再次烧开时倒入少许凉水，盖盖，再烧开，加凉水，盖盖，直至再次烧开，开盖，再煮1分钟饺子就熟了
 15盛出装盘，蘸上自己喜欢的料汁，就着自家泡的腊八蒜，再有口小酒，齐了~

Capítulo 7 HACÍA - WAS DOING

Staying healthy can be difficult — it might mean we don't always get to eat and drink the things we want.

Sometimes we have to sacrifice some sweet things because we know they're not such a good idea!

But how far would you go to make sure you have a healthy diet?

A new survey has found that almost a quarter of people in the UK don't enjoy their meals because they put health before taste.

That means they're choosing to eat meals they don't like just because they're healthy.

However, the survey, by a bread company called Warburtons, also found that 74% of people aged between 25 and 44 aren't quite sure how to eat a balanced diet.

So it's perhaps not a surprise that people are eating meals they don't enjoy!

It's true that foods full of sugar, salt and butter can taste good, but experts say that healthy meals can taste great too.

And we can still enjoy some tasty things as part of a healthy diet.

In fact, some experts say that we shouldn't think of foods as "good" or "bad" — we should be able to enjoy everything in moderation.

This is something that older adults are better at, according to the survey, which included 2,000 people in the UK.

Adults over the age of 65 were most likely to put their enjoyment first when making food. Younger people admitted to eating meals in front of others to look like they're healthy — even if they don't like the food.

Survey: Young Adults Sacrifice Taste for Health in Meals

Imagine a deal on the verge of collapse, not because of product quality or price, but because a seemingly innocuous email landed with the cultural impact of a lead balloon. This is the hidden cost of neglecting a global mindset – a billion-dollar blind spot for businesses venturing into the international arena.
As a communication coach specializing in cross-cultural interactions, I've seen firsthand how a company's success hinges on its ability to bridge cultural divides. A global mindset isn't just about knowing a few customs or phrases in another language. It's a comprehensive approach that values diversity, embraces different perspectives, and prioritizes clear, adaptable communication.
Developing a global mindset isn't a one-time fix. It's an ongoing process that requires continuous learning and adaptation. Here are some practical steps to build a communication bridge within your team.

Encourage cross-cultural exchange programs or workshops.
Create a diverse team environment and celebrate cultural differences.
Implement communication guidelines that address cultural sensitivities.
Invest in communication training that focuses on active listening and adaptability.
By fostering a global mindset and prioritizing clear, adaptable communication, your company can unlock a wealth of opportunities in the international arena.
