Sunday dinners

Source




On the way to work today, I was listening to the radio and the DJ mentioned Sunday dinners at his grandparents. I started to think about when I was younger and we had Sunday dinners at my grandparents. I remember my entire family would head into their home, every Sunday. It was a weekly thing. It was pretty wonderful. I can not remember eating anything other then ravioli, meatballs and sauce, but I remember it being the most fantastic meal ever ! My poppy would freshly grate the parmesan cheese too. This made it ever more special.
I've noticed this tradition is rarely done now a days. Sad, really. My mom moved to PA three years ago, so it's hard to have her come by each Sunday and my in laws tried to set a tradition of a weekend dinner, but that faded quick. Does anyone out there do this anymore?

Less clean up, less set up and less stress ! We went to one place and fell in love with it. We booked it on the spot. Here is what it looks like inside, if you know me in real life, you know this is 100% my style. I looked online for a while to find the right invite. Most websites are pre printed invites that all said "Baptism or Christening".... it was hard to find one that actually said or allowed me to write dedication. I went with the good old staple, Vistaprint. I also designed labels there as well. Below you can see both. The cake was something I wasn't 100% sold on since we really didn't need one because there was a dessert buffet. But I figured for picture use, it would be good.... hindsight, I have one picture of it !!! Waste of money, although the cake was del
