Who are you at Sunday dinner?

Six questions about how you behave when the pot's on, whether that's every week or twice a year. Answer as yourself, or as the person you're buying for. Everyone at the table gets a best match, a safer pick, and a bolder one, and they're all right below if you'd rather just look.

Soft Comfort Colors tees, printed to order, 2,000+ reviews averaging 4.7 stars.

Six questions. Be honest.

1It's Sunday morning. Where are you at nine?

2The meatballs come out of the pot. You:

3Someone says "it's sauce, not gravy." Or the reverse. You:

4Dinner's over. The table's a wreck. You:

5The goodbye at the door takes:

6The thing you say most:

Answer all six to find out.

Everyone at the table

Keeper of the pot

The one who never sits down

The pot went on before anyone else was awake, and it's still your pot at four. Everyone at the table has a chair. You have a lap of the kitchen. You'd tell them it's no trouble, and you'd be lying, and they know, and that's the whole point.

Best match
Sunday Gravy

Sunday Gravy

The chef on the front is stirring your pot. (If it's sauce in your house, Sunday Sauce is right below it.)

Same seat, other side of the argument. Sunday Sauce, $34.95.
The feeder

The one who asks "did you eat?"

It's a question and it isn't. Nobody at your table has ever been left with a bare plate, and nobody has gone home without a container, whether they asked or not. Feeding people is how you say the thing you don't say out loud.

Eat well. A blessing and an order at the same time.

Quality control

The one stealing bread at the pot

You're not cooking, you're supervising, and supervising means a heel of bread and a hand in the pot every time the cook turns around. You burn your mouth every Sunday and you'd do it again. You're also first on the couch after.

Scusi: Longoland

Scusi

Excuse me, coming through, reaching across. Our best seller, said by a very happy tomato.

Dessert department

The one who shows up with the box

You have never once arrived empty-handed and you never will. The white box, the string, the argument at the counter about whether they need the pignoli too (they do). Everyone at your table knows to save room.

Rainbow Cookie

Rainbow Cookie

Three layers, chocolate on top, a small print on ivory. The safe gift that isn't boring.

Second shift

The one who pours after dinner

The plates are cleared and your night is just starting. Little cups, the espresso pot, the anisette, a deck of cards, and a chair pulled a little closer to the table. You're the reason nobody leaves at eight.

Espresso

Espresso

The pot on the front is the one on your stove.

No filter

The one who says what everyone's thinking

There's no filter and there never was. You order at the counter the way it was said in your house, you tell the cook the truth about the meatballs, and you say the thing at the table everyone was thinking. People love you for it. Mostly.

Why these shirts

Soft from the first wear

Comfort Colors tees, garment dyed, so they have that broken-in feel on day one and only get better.

Drawn by people, not templates

We're based in Philadelphia, but we work with independent artists across the world who love food as much as we do.

Printed to order

Every shirt is printed when you order it. Most US orders arrive within 7 to 10 business days, and shipping is free over $75.

Real humans on email

When you reach out, you're not talking to a jerky bot. You're talking to us, and we fix things fast.

Questions

What size do I get?

Your usual t-shirt size, or theirs. It's a unisex cut, true to size, a little relaxed through the body with a bit of extra length. If they like things oversized, go up one.

What if it doesn't fit?

You've got 30 days from delivery to request a size exchange or a return, as long as it's unworn and unwashed. If anything arrives damaged, send us a photo and we replace it free.

How fast does it ship?

Each shirt is printed to order and goes into production the night you order it. Most US orders arrive within 7 to 10 business days. Free shipping on US orders over $75.

What's the fabric like?

100% ring-spun cotton from Comfort Colors, garment dyed, which is why the colors look lived-in instead of flat and why it feels soft right out of the bag.

Can I take it for someone else?

That's the idea. Answer as the person you're buying for. If they land between two, the safer pick is the one to give.

Gravy or sauce?

We made both. We're staying out of it.
