"Supper" does mean something--it's not its fault that we don't use "to sup" instead of "to eat" anymore.

That's just me I cc'd. I meant to note it in the body of the email, so you'd have my more reliable address.
Oops. I didn't notice, and replied to the first address.
I just tried the Chantico, and I was right -- it was Way Too Much for me. That one sip was OK, but I couldn't have a second.

With my kids, sitting down to dinner definitely does not mean that eating will actually take place.
LUPPER! I very often have Lupper.
I've always thought the word breakfast has a certain poetry to it that the other meals lack.
Yes, it does.
The Hebrew equivalent to "brunch" (which is a combination of the words for "morning" and "noon", of course, in the lack of other words) is kinda ugly. People sometimes say just "brunch", the English word, because it has a nicer sound.
'Dinner' also means "to dine." WTF does "lunch" mean? Did 'lunch' the verb come from 'lunch' the meal?
Oh, come on -- "brunch" is a beautiful word!
"What's brunch?"
"It's not quite breakfast, it's not quite lunch, but it comes with a slice of cantaloupe at the end."
We sup at supper, dine at dinner, and break our fasts at breakfast. Right?
"I discovered a meal between breakfast and brunch!"
