You're so right, I certainly forget this art when we are always on the run! Thanks for the 101!
Oh love this! Always forget the order~
great idea!!
Thanks for posting.. I think that a nicely set table is just about as important as the meal!!
great idea! this post is so helpful!!
great post and lovely photos!
One other RANDOM helpful hint- point your index fingers straight up and curve your three remaining fingers to meet your thumb, forming a "b" with your left hand and a "d" with your right hand. That helps to remember b for bread goes on your left and d for drink on your right. Not that anyone here would need it, but it's amazing at corporate functions how often someone is unknowingly stealing another's bread plate!
