Always.  When people are in my home I make sure they are taken care of and comfortable.

Answer 12

If we have guests they are close personal friends.  So we always treat them like family.  Come in, take your shoes off, put your feet up, you know where the fridge is, help yourself, ect.

Family however....!  We live on a farm.  Hate to say it, but family sometimes gets pressed into slave labor!  Of course close friends of the family can also be drafted for labor.

Bennifts are, we are always willing to come help return the labor supplied (and we come with trucks, tractors, bulldozers, and all sorts of other farm goodies).  We also supply some might fine food in return for labor.
