December 26 – Soul Food What did you eat this year that you will never forget? What went into your mouth & touched your soul? (Author: Elise Marie Collins)
Man do I love food - LOVE IT! This year I don't remember a particular meal, but I will never forget Dexter night.
On Sundays our friends would get together to eat a potluck-style meal and watch Dexter, the show about America's favorite serial-killer who also happens to be a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Homicide Department. Yes I agree that's oddly specific, but it's a damn good show.
Communal meals like that really bring people together - you get to share your favorite recipe, tons of jokes and some time with your friends that you might not otherwise get. Between all the commitments of life - work, school and just getting things done (groceries are needed, the dog needs to be walked) - it's easy to let friendship slide, but if you build in time each week, it's something to look forward to!

Dexter nights are the BEST. And I love the idea of building in "automatic" friend time - because otherwise, it's so easy to go two or three weeks without seeing the people who are most important to you.
