  • Brunch

    How often do you eat brunch instead of breakfast or lunch? I enjoy a mixture of the two meals together. Today I'm having eggs with ham mixed inside.

    I was about to ask you why you are eating brunch in the evening until I remembered where you are Mato! I very often find myself eating brunch, but purely because I've been too busy at work for breakfast and can't wait till lunch.

        I know I'm not Yorkshire, but as a Cardiff kid we had midday dinner and evening tea at the weekend but lunch and dinner in the week. Dinner was just the main meal of the day.
        Lunch sounds too grand for a couple of sarnies, so whatever that meal equivalent is....

          I have always known dinner time as mid-day............I have no idea where lunch came from, I've never had one........

            At home with my mum and dad we used to have breakfast, dinner (mid-day) and tea (around 5 or 6 in the evening). Himself's family rarely ate breakfast, but had dinner (mid-day), tea (around 4 or 5) and supper (my family could never get their heads round "supper") about an hour before they went to bed. My grandparents had breakfast, dinner at 12 noon, tea at 4.00 p.m. and supper at 7 in the evening. You've started something now I fear

              Big M, do you have supper as well?
              Brunch is an even stranger option - sorry Mato! Could you have a meal cross between lunch and dinner? Would it be Lunner or Dinch?

                      I rarely eat breakfast - having an early lunch/late breakfast and then my main meal at about 6pm suits my digestion

                          I had brunch today but it was lunch for the BH. We low carb, so meals have taken on a slight oddity - I might have salad for breakfast some days. Today's brunch was scrambled egg with thinly sliced Pepperami, the BH had some Finnish crisp breads with his. I did crave a slice of toast, but I know that would have disagreed with me big time.

                          I'm late eating dinner (so I suppose it ought to be supper) because I ate more ate lunch than I usually do, so wasn't hungry until just now. The planned roast chicken and celeriac mash went out the window, so I'm being very naughty and having crackers & Philly with some Wensleydale (Cracking, Grommit!) and then it might be a home made ice cream pot or Greek yoghurt with berries for desert.

                          I do quite often have brunch because I forget breakfast. Come 11am or so, my legs are shaking and my head spinning.....made a mistake the other day - French Extreme coffee, pure caffeine on an empty system - so nearly passed out.

                            I always have breakfast around 7.30am, it sets me up for the day. I often skip dinner (mid-day) due to having brekky. I will then have my tea around 5pm and maybe a bowl of cereal for my supper before bed........I couldn't eat lunch and brunch as well, that's far too many meals even for me..........

                              Supper is always the one that confuses me. As kids we'd sometimes have a bit of a snack before bed but it was usually fruit or left over pud and we'd call that supper. Lots of people these days seem to call their evening meal supper when I'd always call it tea. That sort of supper always sounds a bit country house formal, a bit like high tea.

                              Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                              Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
