Ah, the confusion that surrounds the simple act of making introductions! Yes, there are proper etiquette rules when you are introducing one person to another. The primary thing to keep in mind is to always mention the name of the woman
or the most important person first. For example: "Jane, may I present Jim Jones?" Then follow with, "Jim, this is Jane Jackson."
Or "Senator Davis, may I present Darlene Smith?" Then follow with, "Darlene, this is Senator Davis."
In making social and business introductions, there are three simple rules to keep in mind:
1. A man is always
presented to a woman first, as in the example above.
2. A noticeably younger person is always
presented to an older person. "Mr. Older, may I present Miss Teenager."
3. A man or woman is always
presented to a very distinguished person, clergyman, official, or higher-up in business. "Ms. Boss, may I present our new employee, Bill Roberts."
When introducing yourself, simply say, "Hello, I am Ruth Smith." If an acquaintance seems to have forgotten your name or an earlier introduction, don't cause possible embarrassment by saying, "Remember me?" Instead, give your name and mention the place where you met, such as, "Hello! I'm Ruth Smith. We met at Bob Brown's party a couple of months ago."
I also finished a Sesame street fleece blanket for my grandaughter.... these fleece blankets whip up so fast when you crochet around the edges.
I've still got to start/finish the spider man fleece blanket for my grandson. Wouldn't you know it? now he tells me he likes Batman instead of Spider Man... I'm hoping that he'll swing back around to liking Spider Man by Christmas! I use an eyelet tool to punch holes every 1/2 inch around the fleece to crochet a finished edge to each blanket.
I put up my Christmas tree--- not over the moon loving it-- but whoop-dee-doo........ it'll doooooo~ My beloved cat Charlie is sitting on the green chair :-)
I saw these candy cane seeds in a magazine and made a few...
I think they are so darn cute~ So many fun things to make...so little time!
