The gathering and one detail you actually appreciated How well you know the host Any practical item that genuinely needs a follow-up MY REVIEW / DRAFT CHECKLIST [ ] The appreciation refers to a real detail [ ] I speak for myself [ ] A practical request is separate and easy to answer [ ] The note does not ask the host for praise or another invitation Read the note once without the practical request.
