Eating in Front of the TV

By September 16, 20166 Comments

Of all the rituals we have in our houseโ€”and we have a lot of themโ€”the hands-down family favorite has got to be eating dinner in front of the TV. (What the what??) To hear all about it, head over to Food52. Theyโ€™ve excerpted the story fromย How to Celebrate Everything,ย which is out in four short days!

    Yes! Friday nights in our house are movie (netflix or xfinity on-demand) and homemade pizza (usually your hawaiiโ€™n). My son especially loves that he does NOT have to set the table. win-win!

    That pizza looks amazing!!! And loved hearing you say this โ€“ itโ€™s a cherish weekend ritual in my house when a good movie sounds like the perfect dinner accompaniment. Have a great weekend!

    We have lots, but Saturday night pizza night with homemade pizza, salad and brownies is a favorite. One day I hope my boys invite their friends over. We even do it when we are traveling to Nanaโ€™s and Grandmaโ€™s and when we rent a condo.

    Growing up we always had pizza on the floor in the living room and called it a โ€œPizza Picnic.โ€ It was a special thing we did each week that I always looked forward to.

    My husband and I call Thursdays โ€œBest night of the week.โ€ Itโ€™s the one night I donโ€™t cook during the week and we get some kind of take out and eat it in front of the TV. Itโ€™s fun to talk about what we are going to get that night and itโ€™s a guaranteed plans-free evening where we just enjoy relaxingโ€“ plus no dishes! Canโ€™t wait for it to be part of my future childrenโ€™s rituals as well.
