When You Entertain
When you entertain Americans in your own home, treat them as they would treat you. Offer them something to eat or drink. Offer to take their coats and hang them up somewhere properly and neatly. Take them on a short tour of your home and make sure they see where the toilets are located so they don't have to ask you when that critical moment arrives-- Americans are often embarrassed to ask.
