I am the Queen!

or so, I like to fancy myself as this monarch. Mostly I am a mother and a wife who is trying to bring the fine points of court rule to her chaotic household.

It's not so difficult and let's follow along if we can:

A few simple rules:

• Upon meeting a guest in the <\breakfast room> kitchen, your rise, smile not and welcome that person to breakfast.  In the real world we would ask them to share our toaster pastry or roll.
• When you have completed your tour of the breakfast faciity, please wipe all crumbs from counts and replace items in their deignated place.

Not so difficult now!
