I don't say grace often (possably because i wasn't raised to do so), but I have been asked to say grace before meals plenty of times, especially at camps or when i was at bible college.
It took me a while to get into a good rhythm of what to say and not trail off once i got past the "Thanks God for the food we are about to eat and... ummm..."
If you have been in a similar situation... i found this blog post with a remedy of what to keep in mind before you dine.
The gist?
Be thankful to God who provides everything, including the food you are eating.
Be thankful for those who worked to prepare the meal.
Be thankful for the food and how good it is. That it tastes good and satisfies our hunger.
Be thankful for those you are sharing the meal with.
Be mindful of those who do not have the privilege to eat the amount of food that is available to us.
