[quote=Anonymous]Read "Dinner A Love Story" for recipes and tips on family dinner. I think if dinner has been such a priority and cornerstone for your marriage, move toward setting the precedent now that you all eat together one meal. We started when the kids were little and now that they are tween/teens the expectation is that everyone is at dinner, no phones, etc. It's a time we all share and often with schedules the only time to really connect in the day. Friends who haven't been doing this since the kids were little find that the kids aren't interested in this charming family dinner routine. No one that I know does family dinner seven nights a week for various reasons but I think you want to build up to more often. Maybe think about making or prepping dinner the night before so it doesn't take so long to prepare when you are done with work? [/quote]
