Think of a breakfast muffin with sausage and egg.

Yep, that's the one.

You can see it, can't you?

Deep in your mind.

Sausage, egg, cheese, muffin.

I don't even need to say its name, do I?

Breakfast, done properly.

Served until 11 a.m.

Maybe it's just that you don't know how to use social courtesy.

Oh, that's all fashion.

Watch how Lizzie Post and Dan Post Centerennick. Act as host and hostess.

They know that courtesy means showing respect, thinking of the other person, real friendliness.

Hello.

And that's Dan Post Sennings boys back on the mic.

Welcome to awesome etiquette.

Where we explore modern etiquette through the lens of consideration, respect, and honesty.

On today's show, we tackle your etiquette questions on bike shares, skipping a wedding reception, no gifts but college contributions, please, for a first birthday, and doggy bag dilemmas.

Plus feedback from Paris on restaurant time slots, your etiquette salute for the week, and a postscript segment on children's visiting cards from 1942 that still has some relevance today.

All that coming up.

Awesome.

Etiquette comes to you from the studios of Vermont Public Radio and is proud to be produced in Burlington, Vermont by the Emily Post Institute.

I'm Lizzie Post.
