Dinner Etiquette

With Christmas just a few days away most of us will be spending time around the dinner table with family and friends. It's time to pull out the fine china and real napkins ... and, of course, your best manners. William has a few pointers on how to impress those who matter to you most during this festive time.

The best compliment to the chef is to hold your fork in your right hand and then shovel your food into your mouth with your left hand as quickly as you possibly can. This makes the statement, "The food is so good that I cannot let a fork slow me down." And thus fills the chef with a true feeling of fulfillment for all the hard work she or he has spent in the kitchen.


Zucchini is not only delicious and healthy, but it also makes a great sticker. So if the conversation slows a bit or gets awkward, feel free to pull of your shirt and stick a few on. Everyone will be amazed at your ingenuity. Note: Zucchini is better than traditional stickers because it is a "green" option considering that it is paperless, takes no chemicals to produce and is completely biodegradable.


Not sure your host knows how you feel about the meal after all that? Make sure he or she sees every morsel that you eat. Being certain that you actually ate it will reassure the host that the food was awesome and that you weren't slipping it to the family dog under the table.
Merry Christmas and bon appetit!
