Last night, our
NWEI Menu For the Future course discussed Chapter 1, "What's Eating America." It is an introductory chapter to the culture behind food. The excerpts brought to my attention that I have very little social aspect to my meals. I can, in fact, go days without eating a meal with another human being (no, pets don't count). I worked hard this past week to correct that and go out of my way to experience meals with friends and family. Do you generally eat as a family or with a group? Or do to tend to eat alone?
One last thing... our "circle question" for the week was a fun one and I enjoyed listening to everyone's responses: Share a childhood memory of food. Mine were the fabulous breakfasts my dad cooked for us on Sundays. I can still picture him in front of the griddle working on french toast (my favorite). No one has ever made me french toast like daddy.
How about you? Have a childhood memory of food you'd like to share?

Chile - Absolutely! Any snack or meal with others definitely fits the bill as a social meal.
Looking forward to hearing some of your childhood memories. Do tell :)
Chile - Yeah, I think I'd be a little afraid too. Must be delicious to hook people on food with a name like that... :)
Chile - That DOES look yummy! I like anything with pineapple...
