Family codes and rituals
Freddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

I do that too, even tho I KNOW it's a superstition. I get nervous seeing un-smashed-up eggshells lying around.
I'm teaching my 13 year old son to cook (his idea) and when I told him to smash the eggshells and why, he regarded me with great pity for my senile demetia.
