The first day of our family dinners.

Hello fellow dinner eaters.  Today we start the "Got a Minute, Eat With me" campaigne, and i am in charge of dinner preparation.  There will be three of us eating tonight, unless one of the kids I already threw out of the house gets hungry and stops by.  We have three children in their5 20's and "on their own", and one ten year old still under our roof.  He happens to be a finicky eater, so this will be my opportunity to say to him "You can't leave the table until you eat your brussel sprouts." just as my father used to say, although I may change it to "You can't have your laptop until you eat your brussel sprouts."
  Seriously, I believe this is going to make a big difference for many families.  We get so busy, we forget to ask the little questions that keep us all close, like "How was school today?" and "What do you want to do this weekend?". 
  I will be blogging tonight or in the morning on how the first night went, so keep checking in, will you?
