Listen to what others have to say. Take their opinion, it can be good and bad, in both cases, it is worth knowing.

Lend your ear to someone who wants to talk about something and stay interested in the conversation. People around us experience a lot in their personal life that we don’t. Listening to their story, ideas and thoughts can give you a better perspective that will help you shape your personality.

It seems almost impossible to keep the avocadoes from turning brown. Well, when the avocadoes are exposed to air, just like apples, they turn brown in minutes. But, when you want to cut and store avocadoes, there are ways to get the job done.

When you are preparing food, for an extravagant dinner, you might have to wait till the last minute to add avocadoes, but there is a secret way to keep the avocadoes fresh for as long as 4 hours.

The secret is to boil an uncut avocado for a few seconds. Put the avocado directly into boiling water for 10 seconds. Remove it and then put it directly in a bowl filled with ice and water.

If this is your first time baking a cake, you'll want to start with the very basics. You'll need four things: cake, frosting, parchment paper, and a dull knife with a straight, non-serrated edge. Optionally, you can add decorations such as sprinkles, candles, fresh fruit, edible flowers, or whatever you'd like to top your cake with.

Lay your cake on a platter or other flat surface and ensure that it is completely cool. If you want to make a multi-layer cake, spread a thick, even layer of frosting along the top of your cake and place another cake round of the same size on top. Press gently. Repeat with as many layers as you'd like, keeping in mind that the more layers you add, the less stable your cake will be.

Place small bits of parchment around the base of the cake, going in between the platter and the cake. This will keep your platter clean while you decorate.

Start placing generous amounts of frosting on the top of your cake. Using your knife, gently coerce the frosting to coat the top of the cake, and slowly moving onto the sides. Run your knife vertically along the sides of the cake to spread the frosting and smooth the edges. Smooth the top and shape to your liking until the cake is completely coated.

Now that your cake is frosted, you can start having fun with decorating. Add sprinkles, candles, or fruit in any way that you like. Scrape frosting from the edges of the cake for a "naked" look. Arrange fruit decoratively on the top. Press edible flowers along the sides. It's all up to you.
