"Including Recipes, Items of Antiquarian Lore, Improving Observations of Life, Good Advice for Young People on the Threshold of the Adventure That is Marriage, Notes on Etiquette & Many Other Helpful Observations that will Not Offend the Most Delicate Sensibilities."

and I'd like to share some bits of wisdom with you guys
personally, I find this one regarding birth REALLY useful, and I hope you will too (some day ;):

"another bit of etiquette to remember is to make sure the older female relatives are out of earshot, because the last thing a young woman needs at time like this is some old neighbor rattlin' on mournfully about the terrible time she had with her eldest, who came out sideways playing a trombone, or something"
