IntroductionEver since I was a kid, dinner has been my favorite part of the day. My family sat around the table nearly every night. Even after eating, my parents, my brothers, and I would sit around the table and often laugh hysterically about something that happened that day.
It s so cliche , but it feels like yesterday. I can put myself around that table now. I hear my family laughing, I see what we re eating. I didn t realize the value in that until I was a bit older and it s something I m thankful for every day.
However! Cooking dinner as an adult and for a family is a totally different experience than enjoying it as a child. Right?
I know. Raise your hand if dinner stresses you out. I ve totally been there, and I love cooking dinner each night. As life gets busier than ever, it s hard to set aside time to throw together a nourishing meal after a long day. What should I make? What sounds good? What won t take an hour to make? And can someone come clean the dishes when I m done? I mean, I m serious about that last one.
I GET YOU!
See, my mom made dinner nearly every single night when I was growing up. Every single night! Looking back now, as I have two kids of my own (she had three), I m constantly like, HOW DID SHE DO IT? She did it with such ease and confidence. And knowing what I know now, she probably did it to provide some of that stable comfort that we were so lucky to have as kids in the 90s.
My childhood memories are full of sitting at the kitchen table on weeknights, doing homework while she made dinner. I can still smell her toasting almonds in brown butter to later dump on green beans. I can hear the sizzle of onions in a pot and the sear of her pot roast.
If I wasn t doing my homework at the kitchen table, I d run into the kitchen and steal a piece of chicken from a paper towel lined plate where my mom had left browned chicken tenders as she made chicken marsala, her signature dish. She made it at least once a

week and would always have to make extra because I d steal the browned pieces from the plate.
By early evening our house was fragrant with whatever she was cooking for dinner. And by 4 pm I d know if we were having tacos or pork chops. At midnight on a Friday I d often smell cloves and pineapple because she d have a ham in the oven, so we could have freshly sliced meat for sandwiches over the weekend.
My mom was a superhero at the weeknight meal. While we had a small group of meals in rotation (as most families did in the 90s), they were all SO good and none of us had any complaints. My mom would often alternate side dishes and did it so well that it felt like a completely different meal. And most importantly, we sat around the table together every single night. On nights when my dad got home from work late, my mom would even call me out of bed to come sit at the table with everyone.
On very rare occasions when my dad was out of town, she made breakfast for dinner or scrambled egg combination sandwiches that I d slather with mustard (Does that sound horrifying? They were fantastic!). And still . . . the rest of us all sat at the table together.
But here s the thing. It wasn t the food that I remember the most. Sure, it was delicious and I think of it fondly, often craving that nostalgic comfort. I remember the weekly traditions, like pasta night and taco night. But, at the risk of sounding corny, what happened during and after the meal is what I remember more than what we actually ate.
The simple acts of my parents passing freshly grated Parmesan back and forth or my brother grabbing an extra biscuit were just highlights in the hour (at least) that we sat down together. Sure, the distractions weren t as glaring as they are today. The TV was turned of
