Do you eat at your dining table or just use your couch or computer table more?

No, we eat at our dining table. Dinner is the only time when hubby, our son and me sit together to have a meal. On weekends we have lunch together of course, but throughout the week its only dinner. So it’s a habit really to sit together, discuss our day and the school, watch some TV and eat dinner.
But if I am eating alone, I do like to relax on the bed in front of the small TV and eat my food.

We use to eat in the dining table in our house.It will be convenient to reach all the dishes that way.And it is easy for my wife to clean the table later.Also it is good to practice the kids to do things in the appropriate place.So,not only me,but all our family members eat only in the dining table.

well i eat on my dining table all the time.but sometimes when there is a good movie or a good program coming on tv then i prefer seeing it and sitting on my sofa. but generally i like to sit and eat on a dining table because this is the only time when we can talk to all the family members and have a good disscussion. besides i can not eat on ym computer table because i don't find it comfortable in any manner.

Some times i use the computer table to eat on it, to focus for what i just doing, But most of the time i eat in our dining table then turning off the computer to save energy.

We do not have a Dining table at this moment. We will either eat from the comfort of our Recliners, or many times I will eat at my Computer desk. If we do get a chance to buy something bigger like we're wanting, we will have to get a kitchen table to eat from, especially when we decide to have some guests over. Back when I grew up we always ate at the table, and I think it would be a Great habit to start for sure.

Actually we don't even have a dining room table though I'd love to get one. The one we did have was way too big for our kitchen here and we just haven't bought a new one since. Most of the time we just eat our meals at our desks in our office.

We have a ruling in our house which is to eat at the proper place. We only at at the dining hall, that's it. If you want to stay in your room, then no food is allowed there so that there won't be ants everywhere. Similarly, we have a belief that only the sick eat in the room, the healthy should be able to walk to the dining table and give respect to the food, the one who prepared the meal and God who gave us the grace.

My fiance and I and his parents usually eat at the dining table, if it's not supper we'll eat on our bed, or either that sometimes at the computer. If it's supper, sometimes we may even eat at the other places I have listed, but we try to eat as often as possible on the dining table.

Hello tjades, I do eat in a dinning table with my family, for that is the time we spend with each other, talking on things or sharing experiences. Eating on tables will less mess, I don't eat while I am working or infront of a computer, for it might invite ants or other insects. Thanks Can you add me as your friend?
