Nothing goes with tofu, because tofu is not a food! Why not just eat some dirt?

I didn't realize I didn't know the answer until I was AT the wine store. This thread is for future reference. You're not very smrt.
And I like wine, Amy! And tofu tastes like whatever you cook it in. People who don't like it are philistines. |

Philistines ate meat. So that's fine.

I don't know what a cat-tillion is.
And I find most wines yummy, so I want to know what would make it taste the best with the food I'm cooking. ^_^ |

Eating meat is so last century.
Khnum is an Egyptian god. I was into mythology when I created my username. And why would I not be smart? I didn't know something so I asked about it. That = smart. |

In the United States, Cotillion has become training that children and young adults attend to learn manners and proper social behavior in the context of formal dance. The participants dress in formal attire and some cotillions emphasize the use of white gloves. Modern day Cotillion takes the form of classes and parties. These programs use dance as an interactive tool that breaks down inhibitions and teaches important social skills. Some of the dances currently taught include waltz, fox trot, tango, swing, cha cha and many other ballroom dances. The parties are typically "graduation" parties usually held after a series of classes. At the party, the students sit together in tables in the front while the family members sit in tables in the back. A master of ceremonies guides the evening and, if funds are sufficient, dinner and an orchestra may be included. Usually after each dance, a couple may be recognized with a modest prize for best executing that dance. |

Took a formal dance class, but my parents twught me my manners and social graces. They could even take my sister and I out to restaurants when we were really
young and we would behave properly - knife, fork, no screaming, no running wild around the restaurant etc. The only thing I hated was the insistance that we
use a knife and fork eating chicken when we ate in a restaurant - drumsticks are really hard for a child to eat using a knife and fork

Although, I think we had sparkling cider or something at the dinner table. I loved to dress up for it, but I hated going... basically all the girls had to
stand around in a huge circle and the boys had to come up and ask you to dance.. there was more girls than boys, so if you were one of the ones who didn't
get asked to dance you felt sad and ugly.

Whenever going out, I was always quiet and so I never did screaming or anything like that with or without the classes.. because I was a shy kid growing up and
scared of my mom. lol My mom didn't think I needed them because I wasn't a screaming kid or anything like that but I liked to go to dress up and plus
some of my best friends were in it.

I think they have classes like that for adults where they teach them manners, how to dress, etc - they're usually designed for those trying to get ahead in
the corporate world

I agree with the poster who suggested you drink what you like. This is what I do unless I am out to dinner with my co-workers - who are French - at which
point they order the wine.

But since you're gay/vegan probably not what you want. |

My parents taught me manners, but I did indeed take Ballroom Dancing and a speech class to loose the southern accent. Debs can't be trashy, y'all.
