I’m literally on my way out the door, but I didn’t want to leave without letting you all know I’ll be gone for a couple of days. I’m headed to Solon, OH for a blogger roundtable with Stouffer’s to share information about their new “Let’s Fix Dinner” initiative.
Just take a look at the video below. I’m absolutely amazed at what their research has uncovered – simply getting the family together around the table for dinnertime several times a week has tons of positive benefits!
Visit LetsFixDinner.com for more details, and you can follow the event on Twitter while I’m gone with the hashtag #letsfixdinner. I’ll be back to share my experience on Thursday!
P.S. Don’t worry – I’ve got a few guest posts scheduled, and you’re in good hands with Mandi over in the new Deal Seeking Mom Forums!

I’m just dropping by to check out your site. It’s pretty nifty. I’m gonna bookmark you and visit often, but before I go I’d like to invite you to my site for a visit. Hope to see you there.

I thinks it’s kind of crazy that they had to do research to figure out that it’s beneficial to spent time with your family at dinner time. Of course it is!! When else is the whole family in one room, looking at each other, sharing food, talking about their day, laughing, maybe arguing(if you’re at my house!) and enjoying one another’s company. I’m not mocking or making fun, it’s good that they are promoting it, but how do people not know about how important the dinner hour is?? Enjoy your conference!

I agree with Mandy! We make dinner at the table a priority at our house too. A traditional both my husband and I had as children. I remember being blown away in college when new friends talked about eating in front of the tv with their families – I didn’t even know that was an option.

I’m a huge Stouffer’s fan and I have just blogged about their revamped rewards program. They’ve done a great job revamping it. I like the direction they are going in with supporting families to have sit down meals. Sound like a great event you are attending.
