what are your eating/meal arrangements in the evening ?
in are house at meal times in the dining area, we all wear identical green dresses, the lights are turned to very dim turning the dining area very dark, i sit at the head of a long oak 15ft dining table and our dinners are very formal, we eat our meals off expensive imported china.
iam controlled, unemotional, and our dinner times are ritualistic. we dine at precisely 7:30 every evening and no matter what anyone is doing in the house they have to stop at seven, wash up, and change into a green dress. all our dresses are identical.
we begin dinner with a song, any song, which we take turns in initiating. to leave the table after eating everyone of my sisters have to ask ‘ permission ‘ of the others; if the decision is unanimous, the person has to wait.
my daughter always says in the dim darkness she can see the jet black of my hair and the ‘ whites ‘ of my eyes, my intense gaze, even sat at the other end of the dining table.
Do the men have to wear green dresses too?
