Happy International Waffle Day! For those of you who didn't know, today March 25 we celebrate this delicious breakfast/dessert item thanks to a tradition that began in Sweden. Waffles are typically eaten on this day. The name comes from Vårfrudagen which means “Our Lady’s Day.” In vernacular Swedich it sounds like Våffeldagen (waffle day) Our Lady’s Day is celebrated nine months before Christmas and Waffle day is celebrated on the same day but has no religious connection to Our Lady’s Day.
