I do a unit lesson on dinner vs lunch vs supper. When I grew up Dinner was the big or more formal meal of the day..be it mid day or evening. Lunch would be the lighter mid day meal and supper the evening meal if lighter. Supper is an english term.
I ask how many of yall have your holiday meals mid-day (for example Thanksgiving or Christmas? ) Would you call it Christmas lunch or Christmas Dinner? My students look at me like I am nuts lol
My Grandpa called coke soda pop. We called tea ice tea (not iced tea or sweet tea) ..who would drink it back in the day without being sweet.
I hear baked beans called sweet beans here in miami
My mother and grandmother had so many sayings that I have to think on it to remember which would be odd. I am from the same area as Michele so they would be the same or close.
