Does your family still do a Sunday dinner? With the roast, potatoes, and dessert?
I can remember when I was growing up that Mom always made our Sunday dinner a little more special. She did a roast, with mashed potatoes, some veggies, and some kind of dessert for us. And I followed through.....I always did some kind of a roast (either a nice chicken, or a pork or beef roast), did the mashed potatoes, and had a cake or a pie or something to finish off our dinner.
And while I still try to make Sunday dinner a little better than the rest of the week, it's not to the extent it used to be. We don't have a roast that often anymore because it's too much for the two of us....unless I specifically plan to use the leftovers later on in the week for Rick to take in his lunch or for a supper. Or I'll freeze the leftovers.
We don't do dessert that often either anymore. I'll make pudding on Sunday so that we have it for lunches at work and keep some back for our dinner today. Or if my sister and BIL come over for dinner, I'll grab a pie from the freezer or I'll bake a cake, but that's about it.
