[quote=Anonymous]As a recent college graduate who has been living away from home (PA) but hopes to return:

- family dinners (we cook and eat most meals together and it's been a great bonding experience and I also had cooking skills when I was on my own for the first time)
- baking especially around the holidays (not religious but we do Christmas cookies and also tend to bake once a week during the winter, as simple as banana bread or chocolate chip cookies. we also distribute cookies to neighbors during the holidays)
- we do family movie/TV and sports nights (during high school, I was busy most of the time but during breaks and also on break for college, this has been really special and fun, it's one of those things where I don't have to love watching whatever it is we're watching, because I love the company
- my mom gardens in the summer so helping her pick out plants and seeds and also tend to the garden throughout the year has been really nice (also chores like yard work and leaves but that's just the way it is)
- we used to have a dog and also got into the habitat of daily walks (weather permitting) so going on walks and chatting about life and seeing the old neighborhood or local park is really nice 
- my parents kept my room the same as it was in high school, so it feels really nostalgic (I could probably also redecorate if I wanted to)

I'll try to think of more because it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside - I love home. I don't know if my parents did all these things intentionally but I was definitely raised to value and enjoy the time spent together ❤️ [/quote]
