It was a routine activity dining indoors at a local trattoria that marked a sea change in my family’s behavior during the past 16 or so months.
Warmed by the wood-fired oven on a blustery, late spring evening, I sat back and took in the scene. Couples sat at the zinc-topped bar, giving the other clusters of patrons some elbow room. A skilled bartender alternated between filling drink and takeout orders. And more than a few customers greeted the burly proprietor with fist bumps and boisterous words.
I’ve missed this routine, a regular activity for millions of American families: the “Friday feeling” as parents and kids ring in the weekend by stepping out for pizza from a local favorite, with perhaps a well-earned adult beverage for mom and dad.

For three generations, family-run Teak Isle Manufacturing has designed and created specialty items for boatbuilders
If you’ve stepped foot aboard a boat in the past few decades, there’s a very good chance you opened a drawer, lifted a hatch, used a cup holder or slid a pair of pliers into a tackle center created by Ocoee, Fla.-based Teak Isle Manufacturing. In the company’s 40-plus year history, it has worked with more than 200 boatbuilders, making all kinds of parts for all manner of boats.
