Slowing Down Around the Table (My first post over at Kitchen Stewardship)

September 3, 2014 By Haley 3 Comments

Welcome to Carrots! I'm so glad you're here. This is where I share thoughts on liturgical living, faith, parenting, culture, and an extra dose of Jane Austen. You can sign up for my email newsletter here to stay in touch, or look me up on Instagram!

“…But dinnertime is about much more than cramming wholesome calories into our families (although that’s a worthy goal!). It’s not just about consuming the “right” things, it’s about savoring the ingredients, process, and connections. It’s about slowing down to treat food and relationships with joy….”

    I love this so much, Haley! Really really needing this reminder to slow down and enjoy a meal as a family.

    Somehow, I feel like I have been in survival mode for the last 5 years (just one kid who is 5, so not sure why). But, even though I am pregnant and in its own level of survival mode, I feel the call and motivation to pull ourselves out! I think becoming Catholic this year had a lot to do with it!
    Thanks for your faithful reminders!

      Thanks, Amanda! It’s so hard to slow down. I’m always going a mile a minute, but when I DO slow down I remember ahh….this is the way it’s supposed to be! <3
