Always the Family Table

Write about a significant meal you had alone or with new friends after moving away from your family.

Relive a particular meal which was significant—maybe because of its mundanity or its extraordinary situation. What emotions did you feel? What did you learn? This prompt invites exploration of sentiments rooted in food, camaraderie, and solitude tied to living away.
