Today - Thursday - is Erev Shavuot.
In honor of Yom Tov one should bathe in warm water and cut ones hair and nails on Erev Yom Tov.
In order not to spoil ones appetite for the Yom Tov meal, one should not eat a meal during the second half of the afternoon, on Erev Yom Tov.
This also applies to the first day of Yom Tov; so as not to spoil ones appetite for the evening meal of the 2nd day of Yom Tov - and the Friday-night Shabbat meal this year - one should not eat a meal during the second half of the afternoon on Friday.

Do someone a favor: Call them and remind them to do ERUV TAVSHILIN!
