Family dinner…continuing a tradition — 5 Comments

  1. The table is very pretty. If it can be refinished it would be gorgeous. The idea of your son & his fiancé wanting to continue the tradition of family evening meals is wonderful! I hope my son will want to do the same. We did have our evening meals together until halfway through his senior year in high school. I went back into the restaurant business and worked 5 dinner shifts a week, but the 2 nights I was home and noon meals on the weekends ( which became dinner meals) we made sure we ate together. Now he dorms at school and Hubby’s & my hrs don’t jive, but we eat at least 1 meal together a week ( the three of us) if he stays at school..,we go see him…..or if hr comes home….2 meals. We miss eating together.

    Love the pitcher continuation…..hehehe (evil laugh). The retaliation is priceless. My hubby is color blind and never could see the difference between navy and black. The best was that he had a brown suit, brown shoes, and green socks. The green socks looked brown to him. Whenever he put on the green socks….I’d smile and laugh and call him an upside down tree…. The socks finally wore out….Now he only has black socks for best.

    What a wonderful start for a Monday morning. Thank you so much!

    • Thanks, Deborah! Glad to give you a good laugh.

      Brown shoes and green socks? Ouch! My husband is not color blind, but definitely fashion challenged. When ever he has to travel, he grabs me to approve the clothes he plans to pack for the trip and I will match everything for him before he goes. LOL

  2. Our family mealtime tradition is lunch on Sundays. We eat at around 1pm and it’s the full works of roast beef, Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, veggies and gravy. Being actually in Yorkshire, we have some of the puddings first, with some of the gravy. Apparently, doing it this way is supposed to fill you up so you don’t eat so much of the beef!

    Now that our son (and only child) has left home, it’s often the only time during the week that we see him. He’ll be round most weeks for as long as he lives within easy traveling distance. Not looking forward to the time he may to move further away for work!
