Dear Betty,

     My roommate¡¯s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I¡¯m excited about going, but I¡¯m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in my country are different from those here, so I¡¯m a little worried about making mistakes.

      Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late?  At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I¡¯m thankful for their kindness?

                                               Yours,

                                               Knowing Nothing

Dear Knowing Nothing,

     It¡¯s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.

     You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don¡¯t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.

     Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don¡¯t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don¡¯t be shy about asking the person next to you; it¡¯s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.

     If you like the food, say so. Of course, you¡¯ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It¡¯s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

                                          Yours,

                                              Betty
