Coliforms will be one of the first bacteria present in the water should contamination occur, and they will be in much larger quantities than some pathogenic microbes that may be present. Therefore, coliforms act as indicators of possible contamination.
Should a mother of the bride (or step mother) host a bridal shower for her daughter (step)? On Friday I rec'd an invitation from the Mother of the Bride for a bridal shower she was hosting. I then find out the Step-Mother will be doing the same thing next month...what is the modern protocol for this event? Follow.
Sometimes the Mother-of-the-Bride will take that role. These days the running order of speeches and the structure of the reception can be flexible but traditionally, the Father-of-the-Bride (or close family member) makes the first speech, welcoming everyone and proposing a toast to the Bride and Groom.
