No, that’s not when your entree arrives ten minutes later than everyone else’s at the table. It’s a good thing.
I really thought we’d be living in San Francisco for the latest US event, but that was not to be.

Biodiversity. If you care look up slow food movement and check out their international and US websites. Yeah, you’ll have to do about thirty seconds of work to check out slow food. Less time than it’ll take for your fast food burger to arrive.

It is so important that everyone sit down at table at least once per day as a family and share food and what happened today, dear, and memories. When my athletic practices intruded into family dinner that was a no-no. We always had solid, healthy meals and it was a must to be at dinner and stay until one was properly excused. As in, “I have two hours of homework left, may I please be excused.”
Don’t get me started on computers. Families, put them where the family spends the most time, monitor activity and keep it to a minimum for kids as they need time outdoors… but this is about slow food and family time. And I’m on my computer before-hours. Dee
