| Dear Mrs. Gently, Help me please! My wife is always criticizing me! She is always teaching me good manners. She teaches me to use my fork and knife, never allows me to eat fish when we are in a restaurant! But I like salmon very much! I always tell her that “good manners” are simply polite ways of behaving. Aren’t I right? Unhappy Larry |
| Dear Tom, Good manners are important at meal times, though people worry less about table manners than they once did. When eating at a table with other people, it is considered polite to keep your napkin below the table on your lap, to chew with your mouth closed and not talk with food in your mouth, to keep your elbows off the table, and to eat fairly slowly. It is wrong to take a lot of food all at once, or to take more until it is offered. It is also better to ask somebody to pass the salt, etc. rather than to reach across the table for it. If you like the dish, just say “It tastes really fine!” In case you don’t like the dish keep your impressions to yourself in order not to embarrass your hostess. But in general enjoy your meal! Mrs. Gently |
