Have you ever wondered...


















Have you ever wondered what type of meal to prepare for a friend in need? What's appropriate? Maybe you received a kind gift, but not sure how to say "thank you." Or, maybe you've been invited to a party, but don't know if a hostess gift is appropriate.

The fact is, at one time or another, most of us struggle with our "social graces." We're not sure what to say when, which fork you use first, or the format for writing a "thank you" note.

Because of those insecurities, etiquette is usually a topic we avoid, but in fact, it is just another way to show that we respect and honor others. On Thursday April 10, SWF has the opportunity to host Emily Ferguson, our etiquette expert, and Chris Jensen, a registered dietitian.

Emily will concentrate on her expertise, while Chris will share about healthy eating habits for women. Each guest will field questions from the group. However, if you have a specific diet question that plagues you everytime you walk down the grocery store aisle, or if you're dying to know how to write the perfect "thank you" note, email Danica with your questions ahead of time at danica.allen@moody.edu.

Don't delay! All questions must be received by March 21.
