Advice from Judith Martin, Nicholas Ivor Martin and Jacobina Martin.
: My spouse and I frequently host meals for 10 to 20 guests, both personally and professionally. We have a debate over whether to put out spoons for meals when we are not serving soup.
We have agreed to abide by your determination: spoons at every meal, or only when soup is being served?: Stop! Please do not put out those superfluous spoons! You are making trouble for Miss Manners. Lamentation over “which fork to use” is still cited as a trap, although it has been more than a century since highly specialized flatware was in use. And people should be minding their own plates.
I have had slippers made so I can be comfortable in my own home. When we visited these friends, I brought a pair of my slippers so I could wear them in their house. Our friend refused to let me wear them because I also wear them in my own home, so they must have dirt and grime on them.
