Winter is a wonderful time to spend quality moments with family! Long, cozy evenings are perfect for lingering at the dinner table…but as kids grow & get involved in endless activities those occurrences seem far and few–so when you get the chance to have a family meal you’d better grab it! Such an opportunity came my way and it made me think a moment–when entertaining we all tend to add special touches to our meals to show appreciation for our guests…why not do these things once in a while just for us? A good friend of mine would regularly use her table linens for evening meals…and while I was always in awe, I also thought she was a bit crazy for putting all that extra work into her schedule! But now I’ve come to realize that, in her own way, she was so wonderfully creating a special atmosphere for her family to gather together and share a meal! I know getting out all the linens and china isn’t for everyone…but once every so often adding your own special touches can make an ordinary family meal feel extra special! So have a peek at some easy ways to highlight a dinner that simply celebrates togetherness!
