Quick and easy dinner as it was a late night at work, just made a couple of chicken breast sandwiches on kaiser rolls with smoked provolone and honey mustard dressing, and heated up some frozen french fries to go with it.

Last night I had a Cuban panini, kale chips, peach rooibos tea, and a piece of pear walnut cake.

Assuming dinner is supper and not lunch, I - working nights - generally have dinner at about 08:30 in the morning. I usually heat up some chicken and have it with some raw baby carrots, and watermelon, washed down with a super hero glass of crystal light.

I mowed down a 12-inch steak and cheese...in about an hour. Good thing, the sauces can really soak in this if kept too long.  Complete with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, pineapple and olives...all dressing...and washed it down with a 500ml Bottled Water. And don't forget my double-layer chocolate cookie. Well 2 actually. Okay, 2 1/2. Hey, I need the fuel cuz I'll be up all night formatting company reports. Mmmm....hazel-nut coffee... |

Here in the south there are people that refer to lunch as dinner. Like noon hour lunch, they call dinner. Yeah they control the horizontal and the vertical down here. |

Dinner is at noon. Supper is in the evening. Breakfast is ... something I usually skip, for all intents & purposes, though the fare itself is fine for lunch or dinner. Or dinner or supper. Or ...
Now I'm getting a headache.

I grew up with supper as the evening meal. My wife calls it dinner, and I suppose that's where supper got lost in my vocabulary to dinner. Though in St Louis, I heard supper or dinner as the evening meal, never dinner as lunch. The first time I heard it here in the south was in a context that I could have taken it as the evening meal.
I too skip breakfast. Probably haven't eaten it since my mother stop making breakfast for me as I got older. Though I do like a lot of "breakfast" food, just not eating as soon as I get up. But then I eat dinner, usually moments before I go to sleep, so I am never hungry.

Though in St Louis, I heard supper or dinner as the evening meal, never dinner as lunch. I (and the rest of my family) call the big evening meal tea. The mid-day meal is dinner, supper in a little snack that you might have at 9:30pm or thereabouts, and obviously breakfast is breakfast. To most people in the southern half of the UK, the meal in the middle of the day is lunch and the evening meal is called dinner. Calling the evening meal tea and the mid-day meal dinner is mostly a northern thing, but my family on both my Mum and Dad's side is from the south of England going back generations, so lord knows why we use terms more normally associated with the north for those meals. I don't know of any other people in this neck of the woods who call their evening meal tea. Anyway, tonight I had falafel, hummus, salad, pitta bread and tomato relish for tea. Yum! |

That sounds good, and healthy. Way healthier than whatever I'm going to have tonight.

You remind me of a story I read recently on notalwaysright.com:
Customer: “Hi, I’d like to return these two boxes of tea.”
Me: “Sure, no problem. Did you just change your mind?”
Customer: “No. Actually, I sent my daughter to the store to get some tea, meaning something for dinner, and she returned with this drinking tea. I don’t actually need it.”
Also, Adam, and everyone else, eating right before you go to sleep is not usually a good idea. Google "eating before bed" for details.

That's some interesting reading Rob thanks for sharing. While I don't eat a lot of the worst foods before bed I don't eat all of the best either. I consume virtually no caffeine and sweets or sugar. My biggest culprit is probably alcohol. It helps me go to sleep but I supposedly don't get the quality of sleep I should.
It was also interesting about keeping ones blood sugar constant by eating foods like rices, grains, even bananas, as they break down slowly and give you energy needed to sleep so your not sluggish in the morning.
Like last night I ate three homemade sausage, egg and cheese on English muffins for dinner. About 30 minutes of reading and I was asleep.
The only thing I've not noticed mentioned as a frequent problem is heartburn waking me up. If anything wakes me up it's my kids or my bladder.
