Dinner Is a Habit, Not an Occasion

When dinner is an event, it’s fragile.
It gets dressed up.
It needs a guest list.
It waits for the right night.

And because we’re busy, that night doesn’t come often enough.

But when dinner is a habit, it’s reliable.
It shows up whether you feel inspired or not.
It makes room for Tuesday.
It’s there even if the bread is store-bought and the salad came from a bag.

Occasions are memorable because they’re rare.
Habits are powerful because they’re constant.

The best dinners don’t depend on candlelight.
They depend on you putting something on the table, again and again, until it becomes part of how life works.

Make dinner small enough to do every day.
Make it simple enough to repeat.
Because the table isn’t waiting for perfect,
it’s waiting for you.
