Families eating together

This time from a different sauce (lol).

A return to family mealtimes and a focus on seasonal food would help create a "more caring" society and bring people together, top chef Raymond Blanc has said. (thanks to the Daily Telegraph)



The importance of families sitting down, even putting the TV off or at least turning the TV down and seeing/hearing each other is highlighted by a chef !

Children and parents often have limited common experiences. That is to say something where the adult can facilitate a conversation, perhaps around values or experiences. Watching films together is another opportunity. But it seems to me that mealtimes are great times for 'being' together. So I'm going to make a New Year resolution that we'll eat more meals together and who knows maybe go see more films together.
How 'bout you ?
