Speaking before hamotzi

Hi,

One should not speak at all after washing one's hands with the ritual netilat yadayim until after reciting the hamotzi blessing on the bread, and chewing and swallowing.

However: One who speaks briefly between netilat yadayim and hamotzi, such as by telling someone the time, need not wash again and recite a new blessing.

(Rivivot Ephraim 1:132)

Have a good day,
Mordechai
