Waffle Day
Sweden celebrates several foods on specific days of the year--cinnamon buns on October 4, King Gustav II Adolf (Gustavus Adolphus) cakes on November 4, and saffron buns on December 13 for St. Lucia Day.While waffles receive their due on March 25, the Benson Swedes now have a new "Waffle Day" of our own. Yesterday would have been my father's 83rd birthday, and in memory of him I made sure to order waffles at IHOP. With four kinds of syrup. And I bet that other family members ate waffles yesterday, too.
