Just like the festivity of a family-style meal: gathering at the table, passing large bowls, and sharing warm laughter, Rondi and Janell believe that the best times of our lives are the ones we share together. From these two talented women who just happen to share the same birthday, comes this philosophy of Family Style entertaining.
Rondi and Janell are talented authors who believe that parents today need to shift the focus of the time they spend with their children. Parents lavish their children with material goods and an overabundance of scheduled activities, rather than finding ways to interact with their children. So much so, that it has become a catalyst to developing their Family Style philosophy. “Stop and remember for a second what was important from your own childhood. Was it building a snowman with your dad? Baking cookies with your grandmother? We’ve forgotten how simple things can bring us joy.” Let Rondi and Janell help you discover your own family’s style.
