i love a good ritual and sunday dinners at cait and curt's is about as good as it gets. most weeks, on sunday, james and i cross the river for dinner at my sister, cait's. we usually tote a bag of goodies from the market and cait and my brother-in-law, curt, are already busy preparing our meal when we arrive.
the particulars are different: the food, the conversation, the soundtrack playing in the background, but the sense is the same. there is dinner served in cast iron pans and cheesy snacks to tide us over before that.
i don't know how long we'll all be in this city, but i do know this is hands down my favorite part about living here.
Sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThat is such an awesome treat and experience! Anything out of cast iron, is just more special!
ReplyDeleteI got extreme envy while reading this, in a good fuzzy kind of way though. I need to create a tradition like this.
ReplyDeletegood fuzzy envy is probably the best kind...;)
DeleteJust lovely pics and they make me hungry! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love that. How nice to have family close by! And everything looks so yummy, especially those drinks.
ReplyDeletePerfect Sunday! Wish I lived close to my sister to do the same. I actually get to see her in 2 weeks so I am very excited!

ReplyDeleteWe have Saturday dinners with my husband's sister,her husband and our wee nephew. The tradition of a family dinner is a wonderful thing!
ReplyDeleteCheesy snacks are very important!
It's so awesome that you guys take advantage of living so near to each other. Two questions. What delectable bevvie fills those martini glasses? And what yummy dish is in that cast iron skillet?
ReplyDeleteWhat is in those delicious-looking cocktails? I never fancied myself a mixed-drink kind of gal, but I'm recently appreciating the creativity behind it all.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet Sunday tradition! Beautiful pictures! I was duped; thinking these were actually taken at a restaurant!
ReplyDeletei have an affinity for those who create traditions and take good photos. also for those who take advantage of time they have whether it is little or short. xoxo www.everywhimandnotion.com

ReplyDelete(You'd get slapped in my mom's house if you put a glass on the piano, though. There are RULES about veneer surfaces.)
what a perfect little ritual.
ReplyDeleteI love stopping here, looking at your photos while reading your post and drinking a tall glass of ice tea.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a wonderful tradition to have. Family dinners are the one thing I miss about home the most.
