| Lunch |
| 12.24.03 (3:18 pm) |
Let's have lunch sometime this week... Wanna grab some lunch together today? Sorry, I already have a lunch appointment...
Having lunch to me always meant, eating something around noon, one of the three meals a person supposedly has during the day. Lunch in DC however, and probably also in other parts of the States, is a culture of its own. People go out for lunch or at least 'grab' some food at a nearby diner or sandwich bar.
The very idea of bringing your own lunch seems preposterous. Well, actually… people do sometimes bring their own lunch, but then it’s usually something bought in the supermarket, a microwave meal for example.
What happened to just making sandwiches in the morning and then bringing them to work? Jacco used to get laughed at when he brought his, but he stayed put and still does so every day. He’s lucky though that there are other Dutch people in his lab who are used to it.
Me, I always say that I take the best of both worlds, and since I am a pretty lazy person, I do tend to follow Americans and their lunch habits…

I think I would realy like the American lunch habits, because I don't like to make sandwiches in the morning!
