How to Make a Deal Meal

First talk to people who live in your household. Ask them if they could come to a meeting. Not just any meeting. A Deal a Meal meeting.

People deal hand of cards and hope for that perfect hand. Well! People can think of Deal Meals in the same way.  This means people can shuffle and shuffle all their options that have been laid before them about whom, how, and when the next meal is going to be served.

Then, it’s time for communication to fit into this picture. One person only needs to talk at a time. Let each member of the family take their turn in telling about what they would like to cook. They may also talk about who else they may need in order to make this dinner a success.

Stay sitting and show respect for what an individual has just said. After all has been said and done it will be time to discuss who is cooking when. Remember you’ll have your turn soon enough. Give respect where respect is due. It maybe your turn tomorrow. You know you’ll want your due respect. Now show the person standing who is talking about his brilliant plan the entire God given respect this person deserves.

You could make a calendar and tell the eager participates that they’ll be names on this calendar stating who will cook when. If this seems to cause minor conflicts, tell the participates to talk to one another and strike a deal with one another. A deal that will please all people concerned.

Now that’s a Deal of a Meal.
