How I Spend Sundays
Eassy
Sunday.

Sunday is by far and has always been my favorite day of the week. When I tell people this they usually look at me like I am crazy. Most people seem to like Friday or Saturday best, but for me, Sunday just always seems better.

Sundays have a pleasant, relaxing routine too them. There is nothing that has to be done since most of the "chores" for the week such as laundry, grocery shopping and house cleaning have all been completed on Saturday. This makes Sunday feel like the ultimate relaxation day because all of the tasks that hang over my head during the rest of the week are actually complete on Sunday!

While I believe in God, I do not go to church, so there is never any rush to start the day on Sunday. Being a "morning person" by nature though I am usually awake and going by 7:30 at the latest...

If we are home we have a pretty set routine for Sunday. Mike usually picks up a Chicago Tribune and donuts or we make breakfast at home. I just find such peace in reading the newspaper and eating a leisurely breakfast. We usually have my parents over for lunch so I spend the rest of the morning p utzing around the kitchen preparing lunch for all of us. I enjoy cooking and it is a nice way to spend some time with my parents.

In the afternoon I usually spend a lot of quality time with my computer. I have a chance to catch-up on any blogs I didn't have time to read earlier in the week and to just surf the internet. To me, this is the ultimate indulgence!

Dinner usually consists of take-out or, if Mike and I are feeling really motivated, we might make a nice dinner on Sunday night together. This is nice because if on week nights I am typically in charge of dinner since I am home so much earlier than Mike. After dinner we usually watch a movie or TV series that we have rented from Netflix and head to bed early. A Sunday at home always leaves me feeling refreshed and ready to start the week.

If we aren't home, we are usually at Mike's

    For as long as long as I can remember, my mother always made tomato gravy on Sundays. My family, and many Italian-American families, calls it "gravy." Don't get this confused with the type of gravy you would put on mashed potatoes — we call that "brown gravy". I could never mistake a Sunday by waking up to the scent of roasted garlic permeating throughout the house. My traditional Sunday morning breakfast consisted of Italian bread dipped in gravy and a meatball or a pork neck. It was a family tradition, from both my parents, to have large dinners with family on Sundays and macaroni with gravy and a side of meat was the staple of the festivities. My family recipe dates back to my great aunt Mary who has passed away before I was born. Since my immediate family moved away when I was young, we couldn't always make it to family functions on Sunday. However, we always celebrated Sundays with gravy. To this day, both my sister and I share the same tradition by making pasta with gravy on Sundays for our families.…

    Spending good quality time with family is really enjoyable. The quality of the time spent is irreplaceable. We love playing scrabble with each other after our feast. Laughing and joking with each other because someone decides to make new words while playing. Monopoly is always fun too. I enjoy catching up and talking with loved ones that I haven’t seen in a while. Just sitting around and watching a new movie with the family or even simply to relax. I am so blessed to have such a great family.…

    Saturday/ Sunday worship or the Sabbath, was first described in the biblical account of Genesis (Gen. 2:2-3) as the seventh day of creation. " By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done." They are the same in this facet as the allocated day for the Sabbath is Sunday for both Catholicism and Greek Orthodoxy, however many of the practices differ slightly.…

    Sunday nights cars parked all over the front yard. Shouts and laughter everywhere, as I walked towards the back of the house I was greeted by dozens of people. It was traditional and polite that the children would greet every person individually to eat dinner.After we finished greeted and checking up on each other life. We then all sat down, while Uncle Jones began his ten minutes prayer before we ate. When dinner was finished the ladies was in the kitchen cleaning the dishes, while the mens was in the living room screaming for the Miami Heat to win. Having my family all together not only make me feel rich but make me happy along with having my boyfriend.…

    First reason is that I feel fresh in early morning. I like working early because my mind is fresh and it is still in my work area. When the place is very noiseless, I can focus on my work. Working in the morning is good to take care of my work. Furthermore, working early morning allows me to do my works when there is no noise in my area, then I can…

    How I Spend My Free Time

    • 279 Words

    As a student, I am quite busy on weekdays. However, at weekends, I have much free time, so I usually spend it on relaxing to prepare for a coming busy week. First of all, in my free time, I like playing some sports, such as soccer, badminton or basketball, with my friends. Sport not only makes me stronger but also connects me with my friends who have the same hobbies. We sometimes go riding in order that we can combine sporting activity and sightseeing. If the weather is not fine enough for me to hang out with my friends, I like to read books. I have a big bookshelf with many kinds of books but I prefer science books. Through these books, my knowledge is gradually enlarged. Thirdly, I also love to listen to music from pop, rock 'n roll to rap or melody. I can listen to music at any place with a small but modern Ipod which is my father's gift for my 18th birthday. Sometimes, I dance freely when listening to my favorite songs. Music really paints my life. Last but not least, I spend my free time on surfing on Internet. I can chat with my friends from very far distance or log on websites to read online news. With Internet, I update many things without having to go anywhere. I can also study English through some interesting websites. (If I have very difficult exercises and cannot solve them by myself, I will visit Google Answers and have somebody to help me. Just like this one ^^). In conclusion, I want to use all of my free time to relax and connect with other…
