Kind of a nice question this week: How are you doing? Thanks for asking, Fandango…
Didn’t sleep well last night: we had Sloppy Joes for dinner last night, and they attacked at 1 this morning. I haven’t had reflux like that in a while. Mary used a different sauce, a packet she mixed with tomato sauce because she didn’t have any Manwich. Don’t get me wrong, it tasted really good, but I wasn’t ready for the gastrointestinal distress that followed.
Another part of the problem was that we ate a lot later than we usually do. We had kind of a late lunch, so she held off cooking until after 6, meaning we ate at about 6:30. I’m learning why senior specials at restaurants run from 4 to 7. All’s well now; I just have a lot of writing to catch up on…

We eat dinner early, as well. That commercial is hilarious!

Welp… count me in on the better-not-have-supper-later-than-5:30 club. Ugh. This getting older ain’t for sissies, that’s for sure.

Yes, I’ve found that late dinners, especially large meals, gives me agita at night. I can relate.

I’m an early dinner person myself, just because I’m an early morning person and my day winds down pretty early. hope you’re feeling some relief

I hear you, John – I struggle with reflux too, plus I have gallstones so have to be careful not to eat too late, and not to eat too much either (both of which I’m really bad at! ) :-)

Oh I sympathise! Hubby has the same issue and cannot eat anything solid or major after around 3.30pm. I cook our main meal for between 12 and 1pm, then he’ll have soup of something light in the early afternoon. Luckily my curries and chillies are very mild, and I do a pretty mean f=ginger and pineapple chicken rather than sweet and sour. No spices or herbs anymore so when we find something that works for him, we tend to have it often.

I hear you. I prefer to eat early so the food is a distant memory at bedtime…
