Survey #253—Full Response from Anonymous user
| Which of the following statements describe your living situation with respect to a dining room and dining-room furniture? |
|
|---|---|
| Please complete the following statement: “Members of my household and I eat most of our meals _____.” | At the dining table most of the time for the evening meal. Occasionally in front of the television - lunch mostly - breakfast often in bed. |
| Please complete the following statement: “When I want to entertain guests for a meal, we usually eat _____.” | At the dining table. |
| What feelings or memories—positive, negative, or in-between—does the phrase “dining room” evoke for you? How have your attitudes, beliefs, or practices around dining and entertaining changed over time? What impact, if any, do dining and entertaining have on the clutter in your space? | Early childhood we ate in the dining room (part of an open plan space with pass-thru kitchen units) but after a house move we had an in-kitchen (much larger kitchen) dining set and a separate formal dining room. The formal dining room was used on Christmas & Thanksgiving. Even though my father had some hoarding tendencies (sentimental clutter) it was never extended to either dining table. My parents prioritised family dining. I am more flexible about it but still try to have the majority of evening meals together every week. I don’t tend to store anything on the dining table surface or chairs. |
