...for a renaissance in etiquette...

i had a piece of cake with my espresso today.

it was nothing special, nor anywhere special.

what made it remarkable was that it was served (rather curiously, on a saucer) with a cake-fork.

i don't eat a lot of cake, but it reminded me what a difference it makes when any food is served with the correct cutlery.

one important tip i learned many years ago was to:
'never eat with a spoon what you can eat with a fork'
