One Family's Challenge: Dinner Together for a Week

Aired on: February 12, 2010

The five members of the Kohut family all sit down for dinner ... just never together! Between their busy schedules of work, school and extracurricular activities, the family often eats dinner in shifts. "I would love to have dinner at the table every single night," says mom Chrissy, 38. "But sitting down as a family for dinner is not an option in 2010."

So Rachael teams up with Stouffer's to help the Kohuts do something they haven't done in years - sit down for dinner together! For five straight nights, Chrissy, her husband Scott and their three children gather together to enjoy a meal cooked by a different member of the family. When the week is finished, Scott shares how the challenge brought them closer as a family. "The best is that we found each other a little bit more," he says. "The craziness in our lives is what stopped us from sitting down to dinner, but the craziness in our lives is probably why we need to sit down to dinner."
