Increasing Family Time

In missing the way things use to be, we often miss the value of the role the kitchen or dining room table has played within a family. Nothing can replace the memories of time spent at the table. "Come to the Table", reminds us of a time when things were simpler and family moments were more frequent. It shows the value of quality time and the little things we can do as family members to catch a glimpse of yesteryear.The book gives real life examples of things that other families have done to bring life back into the family. Whether it is having a special plate and awarding it to the person of the day or a special display on the table, the book will change the way the reader looks at mealtime, homework, or game time around the table.Come to the Table" is written for families, and those persons within the family, that want to increase the constructive time spent with family members. Even by implementing just one of the ideas within the book, the reader can capture time so it becomes a special moment. It also helps build self-confidence in some members of the family and allows all of them to look forward to the time spent around the table. This book should be required reading for all members of the household, but especially those responsible for each family member's welfare.

Wonderful home companion

I think Come to the Table shares a lot in common with other home companions -- like Martha Stewart's series and Simple Abundance -- but I loved this book even more for its warmth and the passion the author has for her subject. Many great ideas as well.

Takes you home

There's something about your childhood home that never leaves you, and this book brings it all back, and helps you re-create a sense of love and generousity in your own home. I ordered this book for my sister, who just called to say she's already read it, loved it, and ordered a copy for our mom.

A heartwarming and beautifully written celebration

This is a wonderful celebration of family relationships and friendships----The writer, with poignancy and humor, helped me remember the traditions and experiences that have enriched my life and my connections with loved people. And I enjoyed reading about ways in which others have creatively brought people together "around the table". I intend to incorporate some of these ideas into my own "celebrations" with family and friends.

This is a smooth easy read of victory for family love.

What a warm refreshing rekindling of family values at a time when we seem so helpless against the spread of hate and destruction! This book gives not only hope but shows the simple ways for love to triumph in the battle. Here's one for the dipper!(soup ladel,that is)
