Maybe "proper" young ladies and gentlemen keep their hands in their laps unless using a fork or knife. On the other hand, if you use your L hand to hold fork (& eat) and your R hand to cut with, then elbows on the table might mean splattering something on another person's plate -and that WOULD be rude.Sue Heavenrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00550259613381458435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-13714318165450786502015-03-27T12:18:05.695-05:002015-03-27T12:18:05.695-05:00I think you'll LOVE this one, Wendy!

Also like the piece you wrote for the newsletter. And, I am a fan of the bucket filler books.
