Making Memories at Family Mealtime

The older I get, the more sentimental I become. Maybe that’s normal — I’m not sure. This year I turn 40 years old. What in the world? I can’t even believe it. I remember dreaming about graduating from college. However, in looking back, I have so many wonderful memories. Family traditions we developed through the years that will stay with me forever! One of those traditions was family mealtime together.

Does your family share mealtime together? Enjoying a home cooked meal while sharing the adventures of the day? Laughing and, at times, even crying together? I know it’s not always possible for every family to have mealtime together every night, but when you can friends, do it with all your heart! Memories are made around that table — our family even had a food fight or two {hee-hee}. I remember setting the table, enjoying the meal and helping to clean up after dinner.

Not every meal has to be complex either… Maybe it’s a simple pasta dish or a slow cooker recipe! How about pulling together your next family mealtime with Ragú? It has the Authentic Italian taste that families love and a variety of great tasting, quick and easy to make family favorite recipes. Better yet, each jar of Ragú® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce is made with 11 juicy tomatoes making it their richest, thickest recipe.

We may only be a family of two, but the hubby and I enjoy our meals at the table together each night. It’s our time to catch up and talk about the day with fewer distractions and interruptions. The tradition of sitting at the table together has stuck with me and I’m thankful for that.
