From as long as I can remember families were supposed to sit down and eat TOGETHER!
Evolving.....
Evolving.......
Even if mom had a little help....family dinners were still on....
Remember the frozen food trays. Wow you had made it if there were some of these in your freezer and then on your table.
Nothing can beat the gathering of the clan around a good meal. The chatter, memories discussed, teasing, laughter, savouring of the good food and the love- bond cannot be overstated. If you do not experience this in your family.... you should put an effort into making this happen. Table talk is a time to share your day's adventures, find out what everyone else is up to and especially to praise the cook. It is a time of focused listening and participating with each other as a family unit. In this day and age of everyone being on the run and the t.v. blaring it is time that we take control and take back this sacred event.
Is a special treat that you can make happen. It does not have to be fancy but needs to be consistent. Put on a pot of soup, gather your flock and sit down and engage with each other. Make tonight's dinner together a special event.
By doing this you will find out what you have been missing and how important it is to your family's health and well-being. Enjoy a great meal together tonight! Blessings.
