Everyone has a dining room table, it's one of those things we think we need when we move away from home, but what do we use it for? Is there anyone that just uses it to eat their meals like it was intended? I am looking at mine, it has my printer, computer, mail, etc. A computer desk never seems to have enough space or isn't as comfortable to use. What do you use your dining room table for?

What do I use my dining room table for? Well, not much of anything! Ha. We use it MAYBE four times a year for family dinners and the rest of the time is sits there empty and unused...except at the moment it is slaughtered with card stock, paper, ribbons and a paper cutter as I am in the middle of making wedding programs for my son's wedding next month. So I guess my table makes a better "craft table" than a "dining table". It is just my husband and I so he usually eats off a tray in front of the television and I sit at the kitchen island to eat.

hmmm, well I am thinking maybe we should rename the dining room table. I don't know too many people that just use it for eating purposes. Any catchy names come to mind?
