I've Got Skin in the Game

Mary Roemer, wife, mother, business owner, and one of the Roshetko cousins, discusses Sunday Dinners.  We used to enjoy these as a family and they offered love and community in our childhood tribe.  As adults, we brought these into our own lives and included those close in proximity into the Sunday dinner tradition.  Now, as we launch our family, the legacy we leave for our children is to connect with others at home, around the US and the world and continue the tradition of love and connectedness.
