Lunch is my absolute favorite meal of the day. I not only enjoy it the most, but its also the most satisfying for my belly. Why is lunch so great? I'm glad you asked.
1. You can eat whatever you want. You want pancakes? That's acceptable (brunch really is lunch, people just like to add the br- for a sense of security when ordering breakfast foods, but as you can see, I don't discriminate at lunchtime). You want an omelet? Have at it. You want a sandwich? Yum. You want a burger? Okay. You want a salad? Go for it. You can get away with eating any type of food at lunchtime. I don't think burgers for breakfast fly, and in order to eat breakfast for dinner you have to preemptively plan a brinner (however, brinner is totally enjoyable when in the proper mood, holla Scrubs).
2. It's in the middle of the day. The the part that lets you know you're halfway through your work and in a few short hours you'll be at home ready for dinner (hump-hour of the work day, as it were.... which makes Wednesday lunches the best lunches ever...)
3. You can eat (somewhat) guilt free! Unlike dinner, after lunch you still have 8 more hours of daytime to work off what you ate! Yay! Have that brownie for your lunch dessert... its only 1 pm.
4. Lunch is social. You still have enough energy to actually want and be able to talk to people while enjoying a good meal. Breakfast is always too rushed, and by the time dinner rolls around on most nights of the week you are already pooped. I guess it could be just me... but it takes a lot of energy for me to be social during dinner hour.
5. Lunch is just awesome. The world would be a sad place without lunch.
