happy waffle day ~

011

Today we celebrate Waffle Day (VÄffeldagen, vÄffla = waffle, dag = day) in Sweden. All because of a lingustic slip up, to be grateful for. As it is a rather charming and kind celebration, like Fat Tuesday and Cinnamon Bun Day.

I hope you get waffles warm and served the way you like them, I'm gaving mine with raspberry jam, apple sauce and whipped cream. It will be a delightful way to start the much wished for weekend.

It would have been extra nice if today had been like March 25 was in 2007, alas it's not, as I'm writing this snowflakes are slowly falling...


Happy Waffle Day,
happy weekend!

  6. I didn't even know that there is such a thing as Waffle Day. This is one fabulous thing about following blogs. You get to read about other people's cultures and learn about it as well. Happy Waffle Day to you.
