I usually have brunch most of the day because I am just in the house so, I can choose the time I will eat. Most of the time I am eating late breakfast and early lunch. I will combine the two together so, I eat only one breakfast and lunch together. It happens when I am online early in the morning and I don't like to stand up and prepare food Lol.. So, to minimize my time, I will just have brunch. How many of you are doing this? Just curious!!!

I was used to do that everyday before. Now brunch just on the weekends cause during the week I am at work so have a time to have lunch. In the start I used to eat nothing to go to work and just have lunch at lunch time but due to my stomach problem now I am doing a little breakfast in a place close to my job cause still when I just woke up the stomach is too upset. At about 1 or 2 hours later I can finally eat so I make a little breakfast before starting to work.

We have brunch on Sundays or holidays when we have had a late night and then when we wake up late in the morning we have brunch . I like the idea of a combined meal , a few breakfast items and a few lunch items and the kids love it . it saves me cooking one meal in the day and generally i get help from other members of my family as well

I usually take brunch whenever I don't have any classes at school. Well, I wake up late around 10-11am. And after I wake up, most likely I would feel hungry and just grab some food and eat. That I would consider as my brunch since my next meal would be for dinner.

Oh 2 meals a day will make you thin? I wish my fat friend would know this. I have a friend that even if she will not eat breakfast? she is still over weight. Sometimes your system will be used to not eating breakfast,, and you don;t feel like eating at that certain time for breakfast.

Saturdays when I am alone at home, I will go for the brunch. I feel so lazy on Saturdays that I don’t want to cook anything. On top of that I have piles of housework to do which keep accumulating throughout the week when I am at office. So on Saturdays I usually finish my housework and then go and get something yummy from the takeaway counters. After returning home, quickly take a refreshing bath and then enjoy the meal while watching some TV. Complete relaxation along with good food

My husband and I have brunch everyday. We have only one main meal a day which consist of rice and 2 dishes or sometimes 3 dishes. We don't take breakfast. We have brunch at around 1pm and that's it. For dinner we only eat light and that's milk with oats/nestum cereal. Sometimes we would take bread that's all. Both of us work from home so there's not a need to eat two main meals a day. But this does not mean we don't. Sometimes when we have to do errands out in the hot sun, then we would have another main meal for dinner. But this is seldom.

Oh!! what? brunch at 1pm? that's too far from the regular lunch? hahaha I would be very much hungry at that... but anyway.. good for you because both of you are working together at home. You can do whatever you want with your time. No DTR daily time Record to punch and no boss.

hahaha.. that's it.. you eat brunch because you wake up late but it;s not like others who purposely not eating breakfast.. they want to economize so they will eat only one meal instead of 2.

Hello friend, i tend to get brunch when I got an early class that I can't eat at home since i woke up late and when i have a vacant in between classes and my next class falls on a lunch time like 12NN. I would usually take brunch and I am good to go. Not only that it is economical but to someone like me who is dieting this will really help. When I am at home and I got no work i would usually have brunch too since i wake up a little later than usual.

I am doing that everyday. I wake up wuite late (between 9-10am) so it's late for a breakfast and too early for a lunch. What I usually do is eating at 11 or 11:30 and call it BRUNCH. I didn't know the meaning of it before but it was my husband telling me that one.

hhaha me too. I did not understand what it is.. Until one time we attended a seminar and it was printed in the program, the last meal is brunch. I did not ask also what it is .. I am just wondering why there is no serving during breakfast time as it used to be on our first days.. hahaha I complain that I am already hungry where is the breakfast? my hubby said they will seerve brunch at 10:30 - 11.. I said what is that? he said breakfast and lunch.. hahahaha

Hey bebs! I like to have brunch too! Sometimes I don't even have anything to eat until dinner! I like to have breakfast for dinner! I love to have ham and eggs or bacon and toast for dinner! Sometimes I get lazy and I don't feel like getting up to make anything so I just skip breakfast and lunch all together! I almost never eat breakfast! I don't get up early so it always ends up as brunch!

Oh, I have brunch just about everyday, I don't eat breakfast at the usual time, I usually don't start getting hungry till later in the day, so I combine my breakfast and lunch too. I'll eat it at lunchtime, but its both meals put together, hey I'm the only one here during the day, I can do what I want..lol. Have a good day

I've had brunch before but since I home school the kids I need to feed them a good breakfast and lunch but at separate times. I like brunch out at a restaurant because they usually have foods that I wouldn't even try to cook but love to eat.

That's the beauty when we have kids to feed because we also have regular eating patterns with good and nutritious food otherwise the kids will go hungry or under feed if there is no good breakfast and lunch prepared and you also are enjoying with the food.

Sometimes when I am in the house on vacation and alone, the many chores at home would deprive me of the chance to take breakfast early. So I'd have late breakfast. But it is not really brunch but just adjustment of my meal time. So if my breakfast is 11:00 am, my lunch follows at 3:00 pm. But normally I do take breakfast at 9:00 am in the office.

Hi friend, hehehe, when I was working before, 9am is for snacks because I eat brekfast at 6am that was few years back but now that I am staying home, I usually eat brunch. I sometimes eat another thing at 3 or 4pm.

Quite often on the weekends we'll have brunch because we aren't up early enough to really call it breakfast. I guess if you go out for bacon and eggs at 11 am then you might as well call it brunch!

I'm usually up early and DH is usually up late so I typically eat both breakfast and lunch and he eats brunch everyday. For some unknown reason, he got up early last Saturday and we walked down to one of our local hotels and had brunch. I'd forgotten how much fun and how relaxing it is. Now all I have to do is figure out a way to get him up early so we can go more often.
