...I was just thinking. If you make dinner prior, and you can't use the
stove, then you have to make breakfast and lunch and be prepared for a
late dinner the next night? Or is it just cereal and cold cuts during
the day?
For breakfast, for us it is just coffee (instant from an urn that is going
from Friday) and a bit of cake. We don't eat a meal before morning
services.
We don't even have cake -- only the kids eat before services.
We don't even have coffee. Till I was sick, I didn't even have _water_.
Now there are medications I take first thing in the morning so I need
a
glass of water. And I _still_ feel uncomfortable about it.
For lunch the traditional meal is cholent, which a stew that cooks since
Firday mid day. (Ours is meat, beans, barley, rice and flavoring. Those
who hail from Russia or Poland have potatoes, from Morroco they have eggs
etc.) The prohibition is to cook on Shabbat, not to eat something that
has been cooking since before Shabbat.
Our other dishes at lunch tend to be cold gefilta fish, cold
chicken, salami (Shuby LOVES salami -- and its low in carbs, which
is good for a diabetic), chicken cooked atop the chulent, eggs
boiled in the chulent, salad, etc...
Sounds delicious to me.
The OP also asked about waiting for a late dinner. There is an
obligation to have three meals on Shabbos. Shaleshudis (a mangled form
of "shalosh se'udos" - 3 meals, called "se'udah shelishis" - third meal
in more Israeli-Hebrew) is typically light. Maybe tuna or egg salad on
a challah role. Most synagogues offer one, or you can run home and start
one -- sometime between afternoon services and sunset (or perhaps up to
8 min later).
There is also a custom to have a Melaveh Malka (saying goodbye to the
Sabbath Queen), a meal after Shabbos ends.
Lot's of eating in "honor_ of Shabbos. G-d _loves_ us!
