Etiquette Tip of the Month
How are those thank you cards coming? Remember the goal is 2
a month. Lets talk table settings. Many people have asked me... which fork do I
use first? The one on the outside. Always start on the outside and work your way
in. Which plate is mine for
bread? Your bread plate is always on your
left. And another rule about silverware, once you pick up the
silverware to use it, it should never touch the table. Never prop it half on your plate. It always belongs in your plate or resting on
the edge.
School Age Etiquette Class
Where do I put my napkin?
Why do I have two forks? What

Catering Tip
Spring is just around the corner and with spring usually
brings lots of baptisms, showers, 1st communions, and
graduations! These are all wonderful
celebrations that generally require a get together with friends and family
which can put a bit of stress on the host.
Here are a few tips to make these events worry free!
Plan ahead- think about the timing-what time is the event
and what should be served.
Make a list- review what you would like to serve and write
it down. Write down your guest list. Make
a list for the grocery store. I even jot
down what dish for what food I will use and where I want to place it on the
table.
Throw it out- make it easy on yourself with pretty
disposable plates and utensils.
Keep it simple and enjoy- keep a focus on the real reason
for the event- the food is a fabulous addition to an already joyous event. If you spend some time planning before the
big day, your event should be a huge success!
We would love to help you with your catering needs! Please call Kathy Campbell, Catering Director
at 867-3525 for more information on catering with Kelties!
