I am embarrassingly late to the party on this one, but I finally got around to reading Bruce Feiler's The Secrets of Happy Families. Let me amend that, I finally got around to reading the chapter in Secrets called "The Right Way to Have Family Dinner" that so many of you have told me about. There was a lot of good stuff in there -- including a great story about how New Orleans chef John Besh and his wife abandoned the idea of a 6:00 family dinner in favor of family breakfast and a post-sports-activities family dessert -- but what stuck with me the most, was the "Do You Know" Scale.
