Heart Plate

For over a year now we have used the heart plate. How it works is each night at dinner when the table is set the heart plate is put at someones seat. Whomever receives the heart plate that night becomes the hot topic for the night. We all have to ask this person a question. Questions that have been asked...
"If you were President what would you do first?"
"If you could paint the whole world one color what would it be?"
"Where would you like to be called to on your mission?"
"What part of yourself do you like best?"

Oh there are so many I can't even remember. The plate has nothing to do with Valentines but everything to do with keeping dinner time positive. Or....dinner becomes a complain fest sometimes. She did this...he did that. Anyway it is something we have done for long time and we all look forward to being the center of attention once and awhile.
