Around the Sunday Table

The game's question
Paint both Sundays in words, then let your mother or father pick one—and tell why.
There were two kinds of Sundays. One was the quiet kind: a walk, the radio, an afternoon nap, a day with nothing to do. The other was the busy kind: the good tablecloth, the best dishes, a pie cooling on the counter, and a house full of relatives, laughter, and kids running around. Chances are you liked one better. Which one was yours?
- Your pick—a quiet Sunday
- a full house at the table
Need a hint?
Describe one picture, then the other, and take time to settle into each. Once the choice is made, ask: “Why that one?” That is often where the memory begins.
Why this game : Choosing between two familiar Sundays wakes up the smell of pie, the company, the rest. The family’s habits come out in the telling.
