As those well history of the those and our exclamation point are not punctuation ( ! ) marks at all but represent actual words. The question mark ready stands for the Latin word quaestio, which means a querying or questing and which printers inserted to make it clear that the sentence was asking a question rather than making a statement. In early medieval times, in order to facilitate things, some printer decided to abbreviate the word and make it distinctive by placing one letter on top of the other. The sign, which was much more easily recognized by the reader, looked something like this: ten failed to complete the entire q, leaving it to look something like a fishhook. At the same time the o under the q kept getting smaller and smaller until it finally became only a dot. A similar thing happened with our exclamation point, which represents the Latin expression io, which is pronounced yo and which approximates our modern wow.

If your answer is a quick, the same as always! then you may be in a decorating rut The easiest area in the house to change is your dining area. You can change its mood to suit your fancy with little expenditure of money or time. All you need is imagination.

Tie a paper flower around each napkin. Or, if youre serving buffet style, fold the silver in the napkin and wrap it with a bit of ribbon. Its a good idea to have a wardrobe of napkins. Instead of using all blue napkins with your blue cloth, experiment with bright combinations. Have some blue, some yellow (or whatever contrasting color harmonizes) and some in a pattern. Then there is the wonderful world of candles. I like them in all their shapes and sizes, so long as they are lit! You can arrange a particularly handsome table by massing various types of candlesticks at each end of the table. Mix wood with metal and vary the candle sizes. Generally, I prefer m 13-0- z. Reg., Unscented or Super candles, however they are used. If you use colored candles, be sure the color complements the cloth. Speaking of tablecloths, have you ever eliminated them? If the menu doesnt include hot plates, its delightful to set plates on just the waxed wood table surface. Whether you set your table formally or informally, remember that it is one part of your total dining room. The tables colors must be integrated with the nerves rather than relax MiS3iiSiii them.
