Let me ask you...what is your favorite meal (meals) during the day? Plus, which is the most important, in your opinion? and why? 👀👦👧👨👩
My favorite, is sweet tooth o'clock! Lol 😆😇👽 Some people prefer savory while others prefer sweet stuff...just like me! I am the One. Definitely a sweet tooth!
To answer the post, my favorite meal of the day is...BREAKFAST!
I don't feel my day is complete or has a purpose until I have had breakfast, and it doesn't really matter what time, either. It could be 10 in the morning or 3 in the afternoon (but never at 8:00 a.m.). Typically, my favorite food, for breakfast, is a soft boiled egg, maybe two, toasted bread with butter, and a mug or two of tea, both in the cold months and in the warm. However, I do eat much much less in the hot months! and I lose weight, too! Does that happen to you, too?
French toast, waffles, and/or crepes, with berries in season, and dices of banana, are also my favorites!
What about you, random reader or Follower? 😅😍
Usually, I have two meals a day, all year round, and those would be breakfast and dinner. Sometimes, I have dinner at midnight...and yes, I can go to sleep without having any problems even by eating something a bit on the heavy side, such as peppers. The only time I have serious issues going to sleep is when I drink tea, and/or coke, after 2:00 p.m.. That causes me to stay awake all night, almost! yucks! 👀😔 That caffeine! the next morning, obviously, I'm a nervous wreck, a walking zombie...🧟
Depending on the moment and appointments, I will have lunch, especially, when I get invitations, and that's the only time I skip breakfast. Also when travelling, and it can be either for business or for fun, I may not have breakfast. However, most of the time it's because I don't care much for what the hotel offers for breakfast! Or, if I've had an event and go to sleep in the wee hours of the night. 👀 How is it possible to have breakfast that early?! Why? because, most hotels serve breakfast till 9:30 a.m. or so! Another thing, I'm quite picky, and not at all a foodie...I don't adapt to whatever is on the plate. I prefer to go to a bakery, and just have some bread, or find some delicious croissants. This happened when I was in Majorca, for instance...I found two delicious bakeries; one was very expensive and they were Swedish, and I tried out their cinnamon rolls! yummies! The other was a local coffee shop, just across the street from the Swedish ladies, and she had delicious donuts, some were plain, others filled with chocolate or cream. Boy, were they delicious! and an apricot juice...That was heaven!
Dinner can be at any time, depending on what's going on with my life, in that particular moment. If I have events (DJ or other), I will eat early, most of the time, at 6:00 p.m.. If nothing is going on , I will eat at any time: it could be 8:00 p.m., 9, 11 p.m., and, sometimes, at midnight. If I don't feel like cooking, or no one is cooking for me, I will eat fruit, or cereals! I love cereals, as a matter of fact...
Italians eat pasta, which is an easy and quick way to prepare a meal, both for lunch and dinner, and, sometimes, they like to prepare pasta with garlic, oil, and hot chili as a midnight meal, especially, if they have guests over. Just like we Americans will prepare pancakes at any time. I've prepared pancakes at midnight and my favorite drink with them is ice cold milk...However, in cold months, that cup or mug of hot cocoa is just purrrfect! Sometimes, with a dash of cinnamon, which I love.
Depending on where you're from, your eating habits are totally different from mine. What do you eat for breakfast, for example?
Moving on to other meals: for me lunch isn't that important, mainly because my breakfast is quite a rich one. However, I know there are many people in the world who have all three meals, and many times, even a 4th one! Lol 😄
Sometimes, especially in my country, lunch is just a quick sandwich, or a hamburger. A lot of fast food! which is not so healthy... I already mentioned, further up, what Italians love for lunch! pasta in different ways. There are people who have pasta both for lunch and dinner! I could never do that...I have pasta two, sometimes three times a month and not every month! and could never eat all that food...
I remember, as a kid, my mom would warm up spaghetti and meatballs, from a can...As a child I loved it...Thinking of it now, after having tasted the real thing, I feel sick just at the very thought of it! Lol 😁 No way would I eat that again! After all those years, I can still taste those spaghetti and meatballs...and it's awful, believe me!
Other people have a preference for dinner...when they can just sit down and enjoy their meal without any hurry. This happens especially in Europe. Just like we Americans love Sunday brunch, spending hours at the table with friends and family, savoring the moment and all the goodies served for brunch. Italians love to dine and wine, taking it easy, enjoying their dinner without a worry in the world, especially those from the south. I don't know which is a better life style...maybe the Europeans? Most of them live life in the slow lane, and their lives are probably longer. We live in the fast lane...Everything fast, days rolling quickly, fast food, as we go about our daily lives, a race to nowhere.
It would mean the world to me if someone, from around the globe, would kindly leave a comment in the comment section here, at the end of the page. I know the blog gets many visitors from all over, but rarely comment. It would be really interesting to read about your eating habits and talk about your favorite meal and why.
PEACE! ☮☮☮
