Problem: Article: When meeting a royal person, it's important you offer a bow or a curtsy. This is considered a formality, especially when meeting a member of the British royal family.  If you're male, you should do a neck bow. This simply means bowing by nodding your head. If you're female, do a small curtsy. This means dipping your body downward slightly by bending your knees. These are among the highest ranking types of royalty, so be sure to address them properly. Emperors, kings, and queens should all be addressed differently.  When referring to an emperor, you would refer to him or her as "His/Her Imperial Majesty, Emperor of (Name of Country)"; when addressing one, replace "His/Her" with "Your". When referring to a king, say, "His Majesty, the King." When addressing a queen, say, "Your Majesty, my Queen." As these are generally the second highest ranking royals, be sure to address them properly. Princes and princesses must be addressed differently.  For a prince, say, "His Royal Highness, Prince of (Name of Country)." For a princess, say, "Her Royal Highness, Princess of (Name of Country)." There are also formal titles required here. When meeting a duke or a duchess, a formal greeting is necessary.  For a duke, say, "His Grace, the Duke of (Name of Country)." For a duchess, say, "Her Grace, the Duchess of (Name of Country)." There are various other forms of lower ranking royalty, such as barons, knights, marquees, earls, and countesses. There are proper titles for these people as well that must be used when you address them.  Some titles are simple. For example, a knight is simply addressed as "Sir" followed by his name, and a knight's wife is addressed as "Lady," followed by her name. The same is true for baronets and their wives. Royal people that fall between knights and baronets and positions like king and queen are usually addressed as, "The Right Honorable," followed by their name. A marquee, for examples, would be addressed as "The Right Honorable."
Summary: Give a head bow or a curtsy. Choose the proper greeting for emperors, kings, and queens. Call princes and princesses by the proper title. Select the right term for dukes and duchesses. Make sure you know the proper titles for lower ranking royalty.

Problem: Article: Pasta is one of the main sources of carbohydrates at an Italian restaurant. If you are trying to limit your consumption of carbohydrates, be sure to avoid it. This will help your meal be more balanced.  Ask for grilled or steamed vegetables instead. Order high-protein appetizers to reduce hunger. Eating bread is a very common way people ruin their appetite for healthier options. Garlic bread, breadsticks, and garlic knots are all filled with unneeded calories, and are pure filler.  Look for bruschetta (tomato, fresh basil, garlic, and olive oil atop pieces of lightly toasted bread). Try vegetable appetizers, such as a house salad, roasted peppers and mushrooms, artichokes, or Brussels sprouts. Ask your waiter not to bring out the bread. Thin crusts have far less carbohydrates, sugars, and fats. Ordering a thin crust is a way to help balance out the nutrients in your meal. Make sure to limit yourself to no more than 2 slices of pizza, no matter what type of crust you get. These foods tend to lack nutritional value. Look for fresh fruit desserts instead that will provide that little bit of sweetness without going overboard.  Order Macedonia. It’s an Italian fruit salad made with fresh seasonal fruits, mint, and a bit of fresh lemon juice. It’s refreshing, delicious, and won’t weigh you down.  Finish your meal with a cool and cleansing Italian ice. It’s made with a bit of sugar, ice, and comes in many different flavors. Ask your server what’s available, and which has the least amount of sugar. It is okay to indulge now and then, but having a large portion of a heavy dessert is unhealthy. Instead, ask someone (or a couple of people) to split dessert with you. That will prevent you from consuming too much of it.   For example, if you want to try the tiramisu in a favorite Italian restaurant, ask someone in your group if they want to share it with you. You could even order a couple of desserts for your whole table to share and request extra spoons or forks so everyone can have a few bites of each item. Sipping on an espresso after a well-enjoyed meal is a great way to rebound from your dinner. It will help you leave the table feeling invigorated and ready to go about your day.  Don't add sugar. Add a biscotti on the side. You’ve worked so hard to stay healthy during your meal. Reward yourself with this delicious, crunchy treat. After all, rewarding yourself reinforces positive behaviors.
Summary: Watch out for too much pasta. Start your meal by limiting your bread intake. Get the thinnest and crispiest crust you can when ordering pizza. Avoid high-carb desserts like tiramisu or panna cotta. Split a heavier dessert with a friend. Order an espresso instead of a dessert.

Problem: Article: A brined turkey is one that is kept in a large bucket or cooler for around 12 hours with a mixture of water, salt, broth, honey, and other additives. It's a great way to ensure that your turkey stays incredibly moist, and no basting required! You still have to cook the turkey as normal, and using a foil tent is a good idea. Some people choose to use wood chips on the bottom of the pan to give it a roasted hickory taste. If this sounds interesting, check out the article!
Summary:
Know that you don't need basting for a brined turkey.
