I read a book about being happy at work about two years ago (Now I can't remember what it was called?), and one of the suggestions the author made was to always eat lunch with someone you find interesting, and to NEVER eat lunch alone in your office. I don't always follow that advice, but when I do, I really do find myself happier at work.
Anyway, I think that advice transfers nicely to home life, too. Eat meals with neat folks, and never eat alone standing over your kitchen sink. Not that I've ever done that. Cough.
Anyway, we met up with some of our favorite folks (and their adorable baby!) for dinner on New Year's Eve, and it was just lovely to sit together and eat some beautiful salads. Really, I think we all got salads. It's New Year's, you know, so I think we're all ready to begin to step back from feasts and caloric bounty to, well, goodness and health. The salad were amazing, though, really! Big City Bread (now kind of a
swanky little restaurant!) was good to us that way.
Oh, and the best thing was that there were fires outside and sidewalk chalk for the kids to enjoy. Gotta love a place that creates such ambiance even for kids.

What neat folks do you like to eat with?
