I will use mine as intended though because family dinners in the dining room were always a part of my childhood and I want that for my kids as well. It was the only time that my mom made us all be in the same room for at least half an hour and it was nice because we each took turns talking about our days.

As someone with deep working-class roots, I grew up associating dining rooms with fancy meals and special occasions.

I hadn't eaten on my kitchen table for a year I think, until I got out of town company and needed to table for serving meals. I sure couldn't expect my company to eat their dinner in the living room.<br /><br />I had a dining room when I moved into this house but I did away with it so I could expand my living room. Now I just have a nice big living room. But if I did have a dining room table, it would definitely be covered with "stuff"!<br /><br />Michele at <a href="http://angelsbark.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">Angels Bark</a>Michele at Angels Bark https://www.blogger.com/profile/15891713963440451090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5668435134653918759.post-21119642120373027682016-04-05T13:36:11.745-04:002016-04-05T13:36:11.745-04:00We use our dining table for dining but it's al...We use our dining table for dining but it's also a mutual desk for me and the hubby, as well as a "dump all" site.

And we use it about four times a year: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and 4th of July.<br /><br />Most of the time, it serves as my scrapbooking area. I love having all my pages and photos out so when I have just a few minutes, I can work on a layout without having to spend too much time setting up and tearing down.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414201637917215413noreply@blogger.com
