Cutlery tied with a pretty ribbon gives one time to give thanks as the ribbon is untied. Long ago silver napkin rings were monogrammed and used to hold one's place as well as napkin. In today's fast pace world, we often need reminders to give thanks or pause for a moment of silence. As we ready our tables for Thanksgiving. Give pause to things that might cause one to slow down and savor one's meal. Give thanks for clean cutlery, fresh water and good nourishing food.
