When I’m alone, I usually eat sitting on the couch. When I have company, we sit down at the dining room table.

At the kitchen table – regardless.

always in the living room, either on the floor or the couch, the table is for decorations

With company: in the dining room

Just my wife, daughter and I: we alternate between the kitchen table and living room depending on our mood. It’s about 50–50.

We eat at the table 90% of the time. But if hubby is watching a football game, he’s in the living room with a TV tray.

Dining room table every night we have dinner at home. Other meals are in the kitchen, at the island. If there are too many people for the chairs, we’ll eat standing up. Snacking, of course, is done standing up—in the kitchen. No one is supposed to eat anywhere besides the dining room and kitchen, with the following exceptions: we will eat hors d’ouvres in the living room, when we have guests; and occasionally, we will eat upstairs in front of the TV, when the Eagles game coincides with dinner time. (If you want to know how to cook real fast, watch me at such a time).

We have no kids and our cats are usually sitting on the table so we eat in the living room 95% of the time. We have a running joke about it: let’s eat in front of the TV like a real American family.

Cats on the table???

It’s been too long, nothing I can do about it now. It doesn’t bother me. Like I said, it’s not like we actually eat at the table.

most of my meals i eat standing up because i am the cook in my house and the last to eat. i make sure my family eats first on weekdays. on the weekend, sometimes i get to sit down and eat and that’s usually in the bed.

About 50/50 eating on the couch watching TV or kitchen table. We did away with our dining room altogether…it’s now the office (I’m sitting at my desk as I type).

We don’t even have a kitchen table! It’s just the two of us and we eat in the living room or at the kitchen island counter thingy.
