A Roman Dinner

In homeschool we are starting "history" which is really just reading books to introduce Miss M to the idea of history. We recently read about Ancient Rome. She enjoyed reading about it and relating the apostle Paul to this place. She currently will tell you her favorite books in the bible are Genesis, Exodus and Romans.:) So after reading about Ancient Rome we decided to have a Roman dinner like they did. Supposedly in Ancient Rome they would sit around on the floor while eating with their hands, lounging around on pillows. I doubt they had onigiri at their dinner, but we enjoyed eating finger foods and lying down while we eat. My husband joked that eating with fingers was no different than normal since our kids try to not use their silverware. :) It was a fun way to end the week.
