Despite all my family's troubles, we would sit down for dinner every night. Food replaced words. "Are you still hungry? Do you want some more?" translated to "I love you." Even now, when I visit the parents, I'm told to wash my hands and then sit down and eat this. And that. And then try this. When I leave, I'm loaded up with a couple bags.

This is a nice book to look through. The pictures are great and the menus sound delicious. I like the concept of the Sunday dinner menu and involving the whole family in preparation.

Nice pictures (not enough) and recipes, but nothing struck my fancy.
