One thing I am extremely thankful for in the Spanish culture is the options I have for meal times.
\nWhen I wake up I have Desayuno<\/em>. This could be fruit, cereal, yogurt, potatoes, pastries, etc., served with coffee (as could any of the following).
\nA morning snack is called Almuerzo<\/em>. Normally eaten from 11-1, this could be a tapa, fruit, pastries, etc.
\nWhen we eat together in the afternoon we have Comida<\/em>. This is normally the largest meal and is eaten in the middle of the day – not to be confused with noon. Midday is 2-4 pm, otherwise known around the world as the hours of siesta.
\nThe afternoon snack is Merienda<\/em>. The fruit, vegetables, or a small sandwich helps one carry over until the final meal of the day.
\nThe evening meal is Cena<\/em>. Traditionally served after 8 pm (closer to 9 or 10), our family normally eats around 7 pm on \u201cnormal\u201d days.<\/p>\n

Effectively, there is no time during the day when there is not a legitimate time to eat. What a beautiful thing.<\/strong><\/p>\n
