[quote=Anonymous]I have run into this with my Midwestern in-laws. I am from here (DC). They are in Indiana. On a Sunday, they'll have a big meal in the middle of the day. Since it's the middle of the day, I call it lunch, adn say something, which I consider polite, like, "Thank you for the nice lunch!" after the mal. I have been quickly corrected and told that is "dinner." "Oh, okaaaay," I thought, "I thought dinner is at night-time but, oh well." Also along these lines, my MIL will ALWAYS ask us, "Whatcha havin' for supper?" ie when she is wanting to knwo what I have planned for dinner. [/quote]
