Better than the time and money I save, the greatest thing that has come out of doing a Dinner Group is that I know that four nights every week we are going to sit down together and enjoy dinner as a family. Before Dinner Group I would fix something quick and easy for the boys, put Mickey Mouse on TV, while I grabbed something quick to eat as I finished up work in front of the computer. At other times we would be running errands and grab something fast to eat in the car. Far too often we would both be burned out from work and just go out to eat.
Now we sit down together, enjoy some amazing food, and talk about our day. I find myself looking forward to dinner, instead of that constant wonder of, “What are we going to do tonight?” I wanted to do a dinner group to save time and money, but didn’t realize just how wonderful it would be to have that time set aside each night to be together.
