Hence why it has been used to refer to all three meals through time; breakfast, brunch, lunch and supper. It was mostly used by farmers/harvesters who would be on approximately 15 men crew who woul typically have all four meals, with brunch or lunch being the largest of the day.<br /><br />So you're not crazy, just old school.<br /><br />~X8Xean45https://www.blogger.com/profile/09236393162685806157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9190921811860761253.post-50902995494405947492011-11-03T22:17:26.497-06:002011-11-03T22:17:26.497-06:00That is awesome.

My parents have been doing it for several years and actually my husbands doctor recommended that for his diabetes that the best way to eat is with the big meal in the middle of the day.<br /><br />I hope it works great for you. It is awesome when you can make these things work.Sherrihttp://lovelaughterfriendshipandfaith.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9190921811860761253.post-65522053592167294232011-11-03T21:55:34.601-06:002011-11-03T21:55:34.601-06:00I actually had considered the social factor. I...I actually had considered the social factor. I'm sure there will still end up being nights we choose to have a big meal because we've invited company over. I guess on those days we'll have a light, or medium lunch since we'll be used to eating then. We really like to cook around here, and we love to entertain and have company for meals. I just think it will free me up during regular days. We're giving a shot, anyway.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08251793751106520904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9190921811860761253.post-20113013669945369872011-11-03T19:13:31.487-06:002011-11-03T19:13:31.487-06:00A reasonable idea.

The only obstacle is arbitrary social convention, a factor greatly mitigated by both your social group and your schooling choices.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9190921811860761253.post-33557015898757255372011-11-03T17:42:23.973-06:002011-11-03T17:42:23.973-06:00I think that's a great idea.

As long as you can stick to a lighter meal at supper and not feel like you have to make something bigger than a sandwich or something simpler/lighter for the supper meal. I think it'll be great for you - good luck!!! :)Carissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991952310852993340noreply@blogger.com
