Imagine if Da Vinci had the apostles sitting on both sides of the table.

Never know about Leonardo. He might have seen the last supper.

I thought it was "All you guys who want your picture taken, sit on this side of the table."

The waiter is hiding Mary.

The name of the picture is the reason I will always call it "Supper". I never heard it called "The Last Dinner".

Did someone call it "The Last Dinner?"

That's what I hate about sharing a bill with a group. I have a sandwich and water, and they have three course meal with several drinks. 🤣

Not that I know of. What I mean is, everyone calls the evening meal "Dinner" now. When I was young (and in the south) we called it supper.
Vanderbilt's book of etiquette says dinner is after 8PM. I still call the evening meal supper unless it's after 8PM.
No sense at all in having to be proper, but that's how it will be for me.

With you 100%!

Being a somewhat AR person, only slightly obsessed with details, I looked up the difference. Merriam-Webster establishes dinner as "the principal meal of the day." Supper, on the other hand, has three definitions:

- The evening meal when dinner is taken at mid-day.
- A light meal served late in the evening.
- An evening social especially for raising funds. (think: a church supper or social supper).

So, in view of the latter, maybe my $20 a person wasn't that far out.

That would be a disciple - neither Mary was there, apparently.

Not to be confused with the last Diner . . . .

As long as dinner/supper is easy to prepare and it tastes good, I'm happy. Healthy Choice, 4:33 in the microwave.

I made chili last night, and there's enough left over for tonight.
