No. In fact, I often eat in front of the computer these days.... but
I use a real china plate. LOL!

I did when my kids were kids, but we ate in the breakfast room....
candlelight, flowers and all. I didn't have a formal dining room in
the house where I grew up - so it wasn't going against tradition for
me.

That was the way it was when my kids were little too. We use the
dining room more now than ever, because the table is bigger and we can
seat more people there. When it's just hubby and me eating in the
dining room, we're usually on automatic for seating and then laugh
about how we're dining like royality (at opposite ends of the table).
Helllloooo down there!
