Busy, sometimes overwhelming, and usually filled with things that interrupt even our best-laid plans. Crazy days can affect our time with family and friends, our diets, even our ability to sit down and hold a decent conversation. </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <h2> <span> At Saven Grace, we believe in finding a way to make time for the important things, and nothing is more important for us than catching up with family at the dinner table. And everyone has to eat, right? How we do it, though... well, that depends. </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> </h2> <h2> <span> <span> Some days it looks like eating dinner at 4:00 PM when everyone walks in the door. Not ideal, but at least I know everyone eats. Other days it's dinner at 8:00 PM and we're struggling to stay awake after a full day of school and work and life in general. Id love to tell you that we make home-cooked meals with our line of Saven Grace sauces and rubs everyday...but yah, no. Sometimes we use the cheat code: pre-cooked, take-out, or frozen meals that cook quickly and can be easily brought out of freezer purgatory and woken up with a dash of dry rub or original recipe sauce. A roast thrown in the slow cooker with mop sauce at 6 AM is an easy win at the end of the day, too. (Hint: a couple of our </span> </span> <a href="/menu"> favorite recipes </a> <span> <span> you can find in our recipe guide have specific cheat codes for some of our go-to's like meatballs!). The smell of sauces and dry rub heating up always brings everyone to the kitchen to see what's cooking, which in turn keeps them there to sit down and eat at the table with us. No phones allowed - just conversation about the day, or the food, and sometimes what we're going to cook next.  </span> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <h2> <span> Do what you gotta do, friends, to get them to the table. Even if it's bribing them with some of their favorite foods!  </span> </h2> <h2> <span> <span> - </span> </span> <span> Jennifer </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> </div> Thu, 08 Oct 2026 20:24:36 GMT https://www.savengrace.com/using-time-at-the-table-to-bring-family-together thumbnail main image
