ARE YOU AN ETIQUETTE-BUSTER?

Don't know what one is?  Sure you do!  You know, those people who say something when someone tries to make something a bit more special that it absolutely needs to be.  Miss Manners calls these people "etiquette busters." Are you one?  Do you rain on our parade? Do you frequently say one of the following: 

• "Don't go to so much trouble!"
• "Please don't go to any fuss, it's just us!"
• "Why don't you use plastic glasses?"
• "Don't bring out the crystal and china for us!"
• "We can just use paper napkins or plates."
• "Don't be so formal!"
• "You don't have to impress us!"

Next time you want to say one of these phrases in response to someone's hospitality, don't.  Instead, appreciate that someone wanted to make what could otherwise be ordinary a bit more special for you.  Just say, "thank you."  You are worth it.
