This week's tip is about using Silverware: The correct way for you to hold a fork or spoon when eating, is to pretend that you are holding a pencil and you are ready to write or draw. Don't ever hold it like a shovel, that's for the very young - like toddlers. Bring the food up to your mouth carefully, don't try to rush. Don't put two or three fork or spoonfuls in BEFORE you have finished chewing the first. Believe me, too much food in your mouth is NOT a pretty sight. When you have finished eating, DO NOT ever place your utensils back on the table. Once they've been used, they should remain on the plate.
