Are you a breakfast, lunch, or dinner person? What does your ideal meal look like?
_________________
What can I say? I like to eat. I can be very happy with any of these meals. Or tea. Or a snack. Or one of those in-between meals like brunch or lupper.
I do especially like to be taken out to breakfast because I struggle to make myself eat in the morning and really need to in order to keep my blood sugar on an even keel. Going out to breakfast feels like a treat, so it's not as hard to convince myself to do it.
For all my meals, I'm looking for different things on different days. Sometimes, I want the homey comfort of something I've enjoyed again and again. Sometimes, I want novelty and am thrilled to try something I've never tried before. All meals are made better with good company and pleasant atmosphere, too.
I enjoy cooking, and one of the ways I stay interested in cooking is by making new things. Just this week for example, I tried out two new recipes. (and both were hits!) I also enjoy it when someone else takes on the labor and I get to just show up and eat.
The most important thing is that I eat on a regular schedule. You wouldn't like me when I'm hangry.

How about you? Got a favorite meal? What are we having?
Yes, I eat at regular times - three meals a day. I just eat plain food though and don't follow any recipes.
ReplyDeleteI love trying new recipes. Otherwise, I lose interest in the whole thing.
DeleteI love discovering local producers here in Devon. There's always something new to try.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big believer in buying local, too.
DeleteI like "lupper". I have never heard that one before, but I like it way more than "linner". I mean, there's got to be a better way of naming a meal between lunch and dinner, but I don't think anyone has hit it yet. Brunch works so well...
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure where I picked it up, but I like it, too. But I agree, it's not nearly as elegant as brunch. Then again, neither is the meal, usually.
DeleteI don't like to cook. I like to eat, but not to cook.
ReplyDeleteI didn't start cooking until I was in my 30s, but I really took to it.
