I've not decided what supper will be, but I was a bit
peckish so decided on one of the Anjou pears I bought
Friday at the grocery store.  To go along with this
piece of fruit I also opened the container of blue
cheese crumbles purchased in the same trip.  Sooooo
good together and this little snack should tide me
over for a couple of hours until I decide what supper
will be.

You could quit while you're ahead and have the pears and cheese *be*
supper.

1.  It was too early call that supper.
2.  It was not filling enough to carry me through
    the evening and until Sunday breakfast.
3.  Next time I'll eat three cans of green shavings.

 
Dinner/supper is that a north/south thing, a socio-economic thing, a
religious denomination thing or an age thing?

Years back, farmers had dinner, the biggest meal of the day around noon.

Today, dinner is often used to describe a more formal meal.  People will
often invite others to have dinner with them but you never hear of
supper invitations.

Yes, in the old day the main meal would be at noon in the Netherlands
as well. Evenings would be bread.
