How Important Are Family Dinners?
My parents always made us have a sit down family dinner but it never seemed forced. My sister and I never had really hectic extra curricular schedules and we were all usually home around 7 so it wasn't a problem.
I don't know that it was my anchor to the day though, maybe just because I was so used to it. I do know some friends who had one family dinner a week but the rest of the week everyone just ate when they had the time and it worked just fine. I think it works for some people and not for others and it's not that big a deal for some families not to have them.
It worked for us, and I think we were lucky for that. I'll definitely try to do the same thing when I have a family of my own, but won't stress over it.
What to do with spaghetti squash?
cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, lay it cut side down in a shallow baking dish with some water (no more than a half inch) and bake for 40 minutes at 350, until it's done, just poke a fork in it.
I love it with pasta sauce but at home we usually eat it as a side dish with butter and lots of cracked black pepper. So tasty!
