Do
you think table manners are important? Why!
Well,
this is obvious. Of course, I think
table manners are important. No one
wants to be around a person eating with their mouth open, talking while they
eat, and splattering food all over the table.
I didn't allow that behavior from my children. Gross.
Of
course, I have been party to some mischievous behaviors. My grandma and grandpa Hedahl had a beautiful
kitchen/dining room. On one wall, floor
to ceiling windows ran from the door in the corner to the counter in the corner
on the other side. The windows looked
out to the trees, lawn, and vegetable garden.
There was also a nice sized window over the sink. The room was also huge. I loved the room.
One
holiday, some of us where sitting around the table eating breakfast. Dad and I were goofing around. He took his butter knife, with butter on it,
and flicked it at me. Well, not being
one to shy away from a challenge, I flicked some back, only I missed. I got butter all over the wall just when Mom
walked into the room. She was angry
until Dad calmed down taking the blame for getting her Mom's kitchen
dirty. If I remember right, Grandma just
laughed.
