Tonight's beach adventure:
And the hyper bougie dins spread including only the finest of goon in the finest gatorade bottle.
Over all my years doing sunset dins at that beach I've never seen anyone else do it. I grew up with dinner expected @ 7pm and everyone watches the news. People got shitty if you spoke. That generation who were brought up with 'TV dinners'.
I say outside, no TV, space and weather permitting is the superior way.
Nice view.
I grew up with the tv on and sitting where ever you like but in my house we sit at the table with the tv on mute, no phones at the table and we talk. If I had a nice view like you I'd be doing the same.
Should I ever have a family, that's what I want, too. I can't stand when I go to lunch with someone and they're just off playing on their phone half the meal. I'm fond of dinner time chats
While it's just me, myself and I, I don't really like eating in silence, so I usually watch YouTube on my phone. Sometimes I eat in front of my computer watching prisoner or whatever other series I'm into at the time. Generally I'd avoid eating in carpeted rooms with anything that isn't flaky, but unfortunately, this house is about 90% carpet, even the dining room
Al Fresco 🤌
I like me a hot dins indoors except when it's hot out. Lunch otoh is great outside.
No tv I can definitely agree with.
