Did you grow up in a family that sits at the dinner table and talks about their day?

I did. Dinnertime was fun. For quite a while there were at least six of us, and since there were no cell phones, no PCs and the television didn't get turned on until 8 pm, we often sat around for a long time.

A friend came home with me to supper, and afterwards, she said, "Wow! That was intense."

@Mamapolo2016 Sounds like fun. Your parents had interesting stories to share?

@SW-User Oh, heck yes. Dad was the real storyteller but Mom had some good stuff to share too.

@Mamapolo2016 I missed out on this experience unfortunately.

@SW-User It was like an anchor for us. Rarely did anyone NOT come home for dinner.

I wish I could share it with you.
