What is the name of the meal of the day?

Okay, so you’re asking about meal names, right? It’s funny how they change depending on the time of day! Like, duh, you wouldn’t call your scrambled eggs “dinner,” would you? Unless maybe it’s a REALLY weird day. ????

So here’s the deal: You’ve got your breakfast, the most important meal of the day (or so they say…I sometimes skip it if I’m rushing, which I know is bad!). That’s your morning fuel-up – my go-to is usually yogurt and granola, but sometimes I splurge on pancakes. Mmm, pancakes…

Then there’s lunch, your midday break. I remember packing lunches for school as a kid – peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, an apple, maybe some chips. Now, it’s usually leftovers from dinner or a quick salad at my desk. Sometimes, if I’m feeling fancy, I’ll grab a sandwich from that deli down the street. Their pastrami on rye is amazing.

And of course, dinner (or supper, depending on where you’re from – I always associate “supper” with, like, grandma’s house, you know?). That’s the big kahuna, the family meal…although often for me it’s just a quick stir-fry after a long day.

Oh, and I almost forgot brunch! That glorious hybrid of breakfast and lunch. Perfect for weekends, right? My friend and I went to this amazing brunch spot last month; they had bottomless mimosas and these incredible Eggs Benedict. I think I ate, like, three plates. Worth it. So yeah, those are your main meal names – pretty straightforward, but there’s something kind of comforting about the routine of it all, don’t you think?
