Me too

This is true, but for us they are, Thanksgiving and Christmas, both mid-day meals.

I grew up it was lunch or dinner @ lunch then dinner or supper in the evening. Now its lunch at lunch and dinner in the evening. Never lose sleep over what a meal is called as long as I get to eat when it is time to eat.

X3, I never use the word supper.

Ever read the Bible?

There used to be a candy bar called Full Dinner.

You have a sermon you want to give us or what?

No. A picture is worth a thousand words. Name this.

I said I never use the word supper, what is your point?

Name this? lol, I just noticed that statement. That is really an insult. Again, what is your point?

Nope, I prefer to be a heathen...

I now call it dinner. We called it supper when I was growing up.

Damn Yankees and city folk got it all screwed up.


Breakfast, dinner, supper.

What about lunch, do you eat that? When you eat lunch at a restaurant, you ask for a dinner menu?

When I was a child we had breakfast, lunch and supper most days.
Dinner was a large meal on a Sunday, usually later in the day than
a typical lunch due to preparing it after church but earlier than would be a supper.
Same for holiday meals like Easter, thanksgiving and Christmas.

Now that we got sophisticated I guess we don't say supper
because we don't want to sound like a bunch of Hayseeds.

You guys ever have TV dinners? What about brunch?

Come to Mimi's Cafe in Marietta or Rear of the Steer in Omaha, and the majority come in at noon for their dinner meal.

So are ya citified or a Yankee?

Brunch?

Sweet Jesus Guy, you're a Socialist!

Hey, calling it "brunch" legitimizes drinking alcohol with breakfast!!

You do know why they all sat on the same side of the table during the last supper...so they could take the picture...!

What does brunch have to do with socializim?

dinner is the largest meal of the day
supper is the last meal of the day

rooted in farming traditions of having a large dinner break mid day and a smaller supper in the evening

lunch is the citified equivalent of a light (supper) mid day in place of a large (dinner) meal mid day


in the city breakfast, lunch, dinner
on the farm breakfast, dinner, supper

Some of us have changing schedules. I eat whatever the heck I want whenever I want. So there's that.

Haha! Not hardly. Notice the time I posted it. I usually eat lunch at 11 everyday. This was about 10:30 so I called it brunch. Really it was just time to eat.
