Once a wild ground – crawling plant, today’s soybean plant has been bred by Chinese farmers for more than three thousand years to grow upright. The typical plant now stands about three feet high and measures three wide. For Asians who do not drink animal milk, the soybean quickly became indispensable. The beans were knows as the “cow of china” because they were soaked in water to yield a white liquid now called soy milk. In 206 B-C., soybeans were first fermented to make douche, the predecessor of soy sauce.

Around the seventh century, miso emerged in Japan, evolving in part from a soybean paste that Buddhist monks brought from China. Miso was made almost exclusively by monks, and remained a delicacy of the privileged upper classes until the tenth century.

The earliest references of western visitors to China and Japan rarely mentioned the soybean. Instead, travelers wrote of “gravy” (soy sauce), “great cakes like cheeses” (tofu), and “milk out of the kidney beans” (soy milk). Samuel Bowen, an American adventurer, is credited with having introduced the soybean to the United States in the mid-1700s. Over the next two hundred years, soy products went from relative obscurity to the basis of a burgeoning industry.

The oil embargoes and resulting shortages of the 1970s created a need for an alternative oil for making printer’s inks. Today, nearly one third of American newspapers use soy – based inks. Researchers have also found applications for soybean oil as clean burning substitute for diesel fuel in city buses and as a machine lubricant.

In the 1990s, researchers began experimenting genetically modified soybean plants. Some of the benefits of these “designer” plants are larger crop yields, higher – quality edible oil, greater protein content, and resistance to disease.

I feel it is important for families to have regular meals together. One of my most positive childhood memories was dinner with my parents and my two sisters. As a result, last year I decided that the entire family would have dinner together three days a week. Because my husband and I both work and our three kids are busy with school activities, we found that we rarely had a chance to get together as a family. But we thought it would be possible for everyone to set aside three evenings a week for a sit-down dinner.

First we tried setting three fixed days for our experiment-Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday. After a couple of weeks of trying this plan, almost everyone was unhappy. Then my son had an idea of having everyone to post his or her schedule for the week on the refrigerator every Sunday. I would choose the three best days, and those with scheduling conflicts.

For a while, the kids continued to resist the idea. They say they would rather spend the time with their friends or participating in sports or others activities. Gradually, though, they began to see these evenings together in a very positive way. We laughed a lot. We made plan for trips. We discussed each other’s problems. After a couple of months, anyone who had to miss a family meal felt unhappy.

We all feel that we have been able to build much stronger relationships within the family than we had before. Of course there are still disagreements, jealousies and rivalries, but we communicate better with each other now. The idea of having regular family meals together, which seemed difficult at first, has brought about many positive changes in our lives.
