We are having Gammon Joint, R. Potatoes, Parsnips, carrots and greens.
Left overs from yesterday for us. With apple cake and custard.
we dont have “lunch” and “dinner” we have dinner and tea!
roast beef, yorkie puds, jersey royals, and at least 5 veggies! lol
So do we but no one ever complains ![]()
Bacon, egg, sausage and loads of mushrooms for dinner today. Don’t have it often so enjoyed it.
To me, Purdy, tea is (to quote Maria) a meal with jam and bread, or more realistically savoury sandwiches, cakes, scones, maybe fruit and cream, maybe a tart, or flan, or sausage rolls, oh you get the picture.
So we had dinner, tea and supper. All amounts to the same thing really.
so what time do you have breakfast?
we have brekkie around 8 in the morning, then we have “dinner” between 12 and 1 usually a sandwich, soup etc. then we have a cooked tea at 5 and that’s it, if I had anything later into the night, I never get sleep!
what times do you peeps have your meal times?
Was eating a roast chicken dinner about 7.30 this evening, with my good friend sitting there with just a cuppa! He wanted to bring something following my recent admission to hospital (got a tin of shortbread and a get well card) and unfortunately his arrival coincided with cooking my dinner and rather than let it spoil, I tucked in. Did apologise but we are long standing friends, and I had warned him beforehand. Made him a quick cup of tea, bless. He left once I’d finished.
I hope he’d already eaten!!
he would have been starving otherwise!
Breakfast? What’s that? Seriously we rarely have breakfast, depending on what time he is due at work my son will occasionally have a bowl of cereal. The only time I do is at those times when I have had difficulty staying asleep and have woken at maybe 5.30, given up and had maybe porridge or rice crispies or cornflakes, then gone back to bed and slept. Once in a blue moon we have treated ourselves to a brekkie at the local caff, but for me that will be more or less it for the day.
As for lunch, again depends on circumstances, if my son is due home before 6 then I will not bother as we will eat around 6ish if he is due after 8.30, I will have soup and a roll, or something on/with toast at around 2-3 and a sandwich around 11. And again depending on his work pattern dinner could be any time between 5.30 - 8.30.
To be honest I could not bear to adhere to such a fixed time table, basically I eat when and if I am hungry. Gave up four hourly feeds some 64 years ago;-)
Well we had the Dauphinoise and delicious it was too, but not with gammon, with the shoulder steaks from the market butcher, plus steamed cauli and steamed broc, and mashed carrot/swede combo, and I had put a rice pud to cook slowly in the bottom of the oven, so altogether a lovely Sunday dinner.
Being diabetic I have to be a bit careful so breakfast is 8am, dinner 1pm and supper at 8pm. Supper isn’t much but if I miss it I don’t feel so good.
Having family round this afternoon so its a Roast Pork dinner , an all the trimmings.
No he hadn’t. He was going to ‘put something in the microwave’ when home. I did warn him, when he rang at 1pm, that at that time of the day when he wanted to arrive, 6pm, I would be cooking dinner, but he made no attempts to leave. That meal could have stayed in the oven for hours!
But he is my lovely friend who is always there for me. ![]()
We used to have our main dinner at 6pm, but now both of us are not working we have our main dinner at lunchtime, so for us it’s:-
Breakfast at 7am
Lunch/Dinner at 12.30-1pm
Supper at 6pm
I feel distinctly ‘unhappy’ if I miss any of my meals Julie:lol:![]()

Don’t know about supper yet.
I have a chicken ‘Coq au vin’ simmering away very nicely in my oven.
