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?Memories of where we gathered. My parents (both gone) and 6 siblings. Dining table in the kitchen. Always someone (usually mum) with a coffee or food on offer. Now all gone our separate ways. Even a different country. Mum's kitchen and dining table always clean even though there was 8 of us. Mine always cluttered even though there's only me. I use it to eat, read, write, knit, craft, talk with friends, and dinner once a year with my two children and their partners.
