Slowing Down


Now a days when both you, and your partner/spouse work full time, it is hard to find some time for each other. When you work and commute 12 plus hours a day, and want to fit in other things such as the gym, you end up with very little time to just sit down and talk. Growing up, my parents always made sure that Sunday through Thursday night we sat and ate dinner together at the table as a family. This was our time to catch up with one another, hear how each other's days were, and to just simply connect as a family. I have taken this part of my past with me and make an effort to sit down as many nights as possible to a nice dinner where we can just catch up. We are all so consumed with our own busy days that sometimes we forget to take a second to slow down.
Monday nights dinner,  Arctic char and brown rice with a homemade pesto
and Yellow wax beans. My new ceramic tumblers.
