Either wait a few moments (as you would for anyone making a toast or wanting to say a few words) or quietly begin eating your meal. It's rather unreasonable to expect that folks shouldn't say grace just because you don't; Especially if you're a guest in their home.


If they've got something to say about you starting to eat before they've finished, just lean in and say... 

"Sorry darling, but you know i'm a heathen. And everything just looked so delightful and sumptuous--I'm afraid I couldn't help myself."
Then wink.

Any anger on your friend's part will soon be replaced by lust and excitement.
