I Love this idea. I have developed a family dinner time we here call "Cowboy Supper". The kids love it. The lights are out. It is quiet and we talk to each other. I tell stories about the family or explain the questions kids have about life. My wife takes the opportunity at these "special" suppers to ask the kids to name one good thing they did today. It makes little difference if the dinner is hot dogs & beans or roast beef & mash potatoes... the time spent in candle light is more intimate. That includes family members or dinner guests.
