It seems silly, having dinner every night. Something different, something special; each culture has specific culinary cues. In the mass media age we all fancy ourselves to be bold and daring when dinning. Yet, whenever we are feeling stressed or lost in the clamor of negative news, we return to the food of our youth. No matter the culture, dinner represents the highest potential of familial bonds and the likelihood of greatest disaster. For me the solution is obvious: eat when you are hungry.

yor reflect the the way we all are in this day and age. However I wonder how much we have lost as a society but not having the family bonding of the “meals together”. Maybe nothing…maybe our whole society

Wise advice. There always seems to be such social pressure around eating, especially big social meals like dinner with the family.
I hope to see more blogging from you. Your profile is intriguing.

I agree on all counts. I still crave my mom’s cinnamon toast when the world has kicked me around

I enjoyed this! Fascinating explorations on the many feelings and attitudes people hold about food and meals.

I’ve actually been blogging since July of 2006, but took almost a year off due to internal issues. If you click the link in my profile to my other blog, you’ll understand.
