On today’s show, we take your questions on names for mothers and grandmothers, tipping at hotels, and thank you advice for holiday gifts. For community members, your bonus question of the week is about not ordering alcohol at a business meal. Plus your weekly challenge, etiquette salute, and a postscript segment on the origins of etiquette from Margaret Visser’s The Rituals of Dinner. Join the community - emilypost.substack.com
