What you had for dinner (tea)?

[GeoEm]

I'm Scottish. We say tea.
I am having Indonesian noodle dish and some red wine.
Mostly excited about the red wine haha.
How about you? What are you'd having/had?

Anyone else enjoying some wine this Saturday night?



I call it dinner or supper.

I marinaded some butterflied chicken and then griddled them, we had them with caesar salad and the kids had baked potatoes. They had nobbly bobblies, I had some viennetta.

No wine - I'm trying to be good. Had no booze last night either.

Dinner.

Bruschetta to start. Lamb harissa meatballs and spaghetti with green salad.

I love pasta 🍝

I'm Scottish but have lived in England since I was 18( over 50 now🤦‍♀️) and lived abroad for some of my childhood
I say
Tea
Dinner
And occasionally supper( if having friends over and it's a casual meal at the kitchen table with lots of wine!
To answer the question we are having Ken Hom noodle dish

We had a treat of a chinese with the DC, they mainly eat the starters and a bit of rice. I say dinner or tea. No wine tonight, had a cup of tea.

I had Domino's, with hot chocolates to drink (I was at a party )

I had some food out - a tuna baguette and a pint of lager at the event we were at

And a couple of the kids’ Tangfastics

Not supper, dinner or tea really

Although I had a cup of tea as well

I think it’s because I don’t see how a glass or 2 of wine helps you unwind. It’s just a drink and having just a couple of glasses isn’t enough for me to start feeling the effect of getting drunk so I don’t see how a glass or wine or a Diet Coke to unwind makes any difference as it has the same effect for me. I think people just like to say they have had some wine as it makes them feel like they have had a treat on the weekend which they are perfectly entitled to.
I just didn’t realise how common it is.

Howdoyoudoit31 but you realise other people are different to you, and maybe a glass or two does help them to unwind, of course?

It’s not about “feeling the effect of getting drunk” or wasted!!!!!

A glass or two of wine relaxes most people

Weird that you don’t get that

If you never drink at home, Howdoyoudoit31 and you don't feel any effect at all after drinking a couple of glasses of wine, you must go on quite a few 'nights out with the girls'

I feel the effect of just one glass of wine. If you don't then perhaps you are a big drinker and are numbed to it's effects???

What a stupid comment Cambalamb. I have already said I don’t drink at home so how does that make me a big drinker

1 night out with the girls every 4-6 weeks. I drink a fair amount on those nights as I drink to get drunk.

A glass of wine definitely relaxes me and I enjoy the taste, I'm not remotely drunk after 1 glass. Each to their own. I don't binge drink specifically get drunk on my rare nights out.

This post is now boring. . Look at how much I don't drink.....

I'm Geordie living South, but we say tea. Though DD mixes it up a bit as she's grown up down here😂

White fish Korma with sag aloo, rice & garlic naan, followed by home made almond snow cake

Thinking on it further 🤔

Here it's tea if it's a quick cooked meal or takeaway

Dinner if it's a more elaborate meal, maybe with guests

Supper if you're not that hungry & it's more of a snack

Homemade lentil and veg soup, cheese, crackers.

Been a busy weekend away so didn't have much time to cook.

Sorry if this is boring 😬
We had roast lamb, cabbage, carrots, mash, Yorkshire puds with shit loads of gravy.
Afters was fresh figs & pecorino all washed down with modest amounts of Macon village 😊
Retired to sofa and continued on the wine and nibbled some roast chestnuts and a few slices of chocolate orange.

I drink a fair amount on those nights as I drink to get drunk

But not everyone does. I drink (generally) because I like the taste of good wine and because a glass or two in the evening relaxes me. Because we’re all different 🤷🏻‍♀️.
(Actually don’t drink anything at the moment as I’m pregnant, but I’m looking forward to that first glass of cold white wine!)

I'm American. Tea is a drink. 😉

We had roast beef and baked potatoes.

I'm from Oldham and it's tea here dinner is something you have at midday

Last night a had gammon and pineapple with veg and roast potatoes.

Not sure yet for tonight. I ended up going to bed at 8pm with awful stomach ache - not as bad this morning but still don't feel amazing. Maybe comfort food.

Steak with stuffed mushrooms
Followed by rhubarb and custard

It's tea to me and I'm from the Midlands.

I took porridge to work last night and had it mixed with skyr. Very nice.

^ Is this some sort of joke? Seriously! wtf!!

I had a spicy bean burger, sweet potato fries, green salad, coleslaw, cherry tomatoes and avocado. I also had half a bottle of pinot. I call it dinner (southerner).
