Dinner
Dinner time is the most flexible of all meals, beginning anytime between 8pm and 10pm. This is commonly also visiting time for our community, for both business and personal reasons. That means that dinner is the meal most often attended by extra visitors. My family often has a leftover bowl of food from lunch that will be brought out and offered to people who are not part of our house. I've rarely seen a time when there was not enough food to go around.
Money (and its derivatives)
This is the one Senegalese dish that I refuse to eat. My family has laughingly accepted this and is usually kind enough to make sure there is a left-over portion of lunch for me to eat whenever this dish is served.
Money, lacgh, and seour are three dishes that begin as a flour-type substance and end up as a pile of bready-balls that are cooked into a soupy-like substance till they are a pudding consistancy. These three versions of the same meal are similar, but they start with different bases: millet flour, rice flour or peanut flour.
These puddings are served with a thick faux-milk or faux-yogurt cream poured over them and then topped with heaps of white sugar. My husband enjoys this meal, but for some reason, after my first few times eating it, I could no longer handle the texture combined with the overpowering sweetness of the topping. I've met local Senegalese people who also won't eat it, so I'm not alone!

The most local and deeply Pulaar dish I eat just about every other night is a cooked, millet-based dish, topped with an oily meat, bean or mystery-greens sauce.
