A: Remove the skin prior to cooking. Cook the fish before removing the skin. Use a fish scaler instead of a knife.

Article: When you walk into a room full of strangers, it can be hard to figure out how to break in. Watching people you don't know talk and laugh with each other may seem intimidating. But each person there is an individual, just like you, and they're all just trying to get to know people and have a good time. A lot of people dread having to make small talk with strangers, but there's another way to look at mingling. If you can come to the situation with a real desire to get to know people, meeting and chatting with them will suddenly seem a lot more interesting and enjoyable. Think of each party or gathering as an opportunity to meet people with all sorts of intriguing histories, interests and passions. Remember, everyone has something to teach you. Engaging with and connecting to other people is fun. That's why people have parties in the first place. Before entering the event, prepare and remind yourself to do some of the following things: Dress appropriately so you do not worry about being over or underdressed. The right clothes can boost your confidence and be a conversation starter. Brush your teeth and freshen up so you do not have to worry about your breath or cowlick. Try to be rested. Take a nap if the event is later in the day. It's a lot harder to mingle when you're tired. Eat a meal before you go. You'll feel more energized and you'll be less likely to eat or drink too much at the party. Don't drink too much. Sometimes people think they need alcohol to loosen up. While a little can help, too much can be detrimental. Remember to take it easy and drink water between drinks. Take a few deep breaths to center yourself. Remind yourself that you were invited for a reason: to mingle and have fun. If you're lucky, there will be a few people at the social gathering you'd like to get to know better. Don't be afraid to exchange numbers so you can hang out at a later time. Next time you both find yourself at the same party, you'll have someone to talk to.

Q: Some schools might require you to wear business casual or professional attire for the ceremony. Check your school's website or contact the office in charge of graduation to confirm the dress code. If there isn't a dress code, you should still attempt to look put together and professional. Pick a solid-colored or striped dress shirt with a collar, and add a coordinating tie. Opt for a pair of neutral-colored slacks or dress pants to round out the outfit, and wear a belt with your shirt tucked in. If you live in a warm climate, you could also wear a polo shirt with a collar. To show off your school spirit, you can match your tie to the color of your robe or the school colors. Choose a dress in a neutral color, like white, tan, gray, navy, or black. If you're wearing a skirt and a blouse, stick to a solid-colored top that's easy to pair with a bright color. Pick a knee-length skirt in a solid color to add dimension to the outfit. Make sure the skirt or dress is an appropriate length for a professional occasion, but not so long that it sticks out of the bottom of the gown. Leave your purse or backpack at home for graduation, and stick to just the necessities, like your keys, phone, and wallet. If you'll see your family before the ceremony, drop off your bag with them to retrieve it later. If you're wearing a dress or skirt, look for one that has pockets to inconspicuously hold your phone, wallet, and keys during the ceremony. Graduation isn't the best day to break in a new pair of shoes since you'll be doing a lot of walking and standing. Pick a pair of comfortable dress shoes or loafers if you're going for a masculine look. For a feminine outfit, opt for flats, comfortable wedges, or chunky heels. Avoid wearing stiletto heels or very high heels for the ceremony, especially if it's outside. Your heels might get caught in the grass, or you might trip while you're walking in the processional. Wear your shoes for a few hours the day before the ceremony to practice walking and make sure they're comfortable.
