S'il Vous Plaît

As the holiday season is upon us, many people are having parties. I, too, have hosted a couple of gatherings, and, not surprisingly, some things have peeved me.

It is a big peeve when people either a) don't RSVP or b) say they will come and then don't and don't bother to let the host know. Remember that people who are hosting an event need to have fairly firm figures, especially if said event includes food and drink, as ingredients must be purchased. It is a simple courtesy to let people know if you are coming or not. Sure, you may be holding out for some better invitation to come along, but in that case, say you’re not going. If that’s your attitude, you probably won’t be a fun guest anyway.

So respondez s'il vous plaît!
