It wasn't exactly a time change, but I was taking a road trip to Yellowstone National Park and did not realize that somewhere in Utah the time changed. The result was that I arrived in Idaho Falls thinking that the city would be alive and restaurants would be open. It turned out that not only is Idaho Falls a much smaller town than I realized but everything was shut down.

We ended up dining on some delicious beef jerky and M&M's we picked up as a gas station.

Sounds like a lovely dinner!

I've done some work going out and about to support people in their homes and I've found that getting lunch is a luxury. You leave one person at 12.30-1pm when they're about toget their lucnh. Then when you arrive with the next person 15 minutes later, they've just jad theirs so you can't go to a cafe with them and have something to eat coz they're not hungry.
