I have a rule. Okay, it's probably not a rule. It's anal-retentiveness, or maybe even old age.
I have routines, and things.
If I eat something past 2 P.M., I consider my supper spoiled. Late lunches, you might call them. Of course, it kinda depends on what and how much I eat. But generally speaking, if I eat after 2 P.M., there will be no supper.
We went to Ellisville, MO, about an hour away, to meet up with my sister and BIL to watch a game my nephew was playing in, and afterwards, we decided to have "lunch." But it was after 2 P.M., so I made it a point to tell the wifey, "Just so you know, this will be our 'dinner.'"
Or supperunch.
We went to a Mexican restaurant called Vallarta, and I had a combo platter with a chicken enchilada, beef burrito, Spanish rice and refried beans.
I forget what the wife had.
The bill with tip came to about $51. Not awful. But no supper will be had. Wifey did have a little leftover spaghetti a little bit ago. I MIGHT have some chips or something.
But in the meantime I'm up and around and figured, I might as well spend a few minutes on myLot catching up and tooling around because...
After all, I gotta pay for my supperunch.

I sometimes eat my lunch at 8:30 or 9 in the morning; and then I have my dinner at 4 pm.

@LindaOHio I don't know if my times will ever change. But who knows? The older I get the more that changes for me in more ways than one. lol

If you eat after 2pm you can call it snacking. And your wife can call it supper.
