The game's question
Line by line, let the smell of the oven come first—then decide together.
Sunday was not like the other days. By late morning, the smell of a roast in the oven filled the whole house. The good tablecloth came out, and someone carved the meat at the table for everyone. Here is what people say: in many homes back then, the smell alone told you it was Sunday. Decide together: is that true?
- True
- Not true
Need a hint?
Start with the smell of a roast in the oven, then ask: did any other day of the week smell like that? Who carved at your table, and who got the best piece?
See the answer
Answer: True—in many homes, Sunday smelled like a roast in the oven.
Why this game : Sunday smells set a whole scene: the table, the voices, the plates going around. Sunday dinners are easy to talk about, and fun to share.
