Most of us think of holidays as one of those few days our employer actually pays us to stay home. We all know the big ones: New Year's, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas. And yes, some employers are a little more generous but most likely you'll have no more than 7 days a year that you consider a holiday. Depending on your religious beliefs you may add a few more to that annual list, and find that you're up to a dozen or so.
For a day to be considered a "National Holiday" it needs to be declared so by Congress. And then of course we have the "commercial holidays" that we all love, which in effect are simply days that have become popular over the years. We all love them, but for some of us that just isn't enough. Organizations, corporation, and even loosely connected groups of people can "declare" a day for any reason they choose. Some of these days catch on and become popular with the general population, some remain only recognized by their creator, and some fizzle out and become a mere memory after only a year or two.
The point is - Every day, somewhere someone is celebrating something.

August 24, 2010 ~ Wake Up it's National Waffle Day

Again with the food holidays...I'm going to get fat(ter)!!!!

I really love waffles, as a matter of fact just the other day I had waffles for dinner.... I know there are others of you that enjoy a good breakfast for dinner.  So, guess what's for dinner again tonight!!!  Ok, I admit it, I need to make sure every little waffle cup is full of syrup...

Let's take a vote...Round or Square?  They both have their own advantages and disadvantages, but my personal favorite is round...fits better on the plate.







Going out for a celebratory dinner tonight?   Be sure to make your reservations for Waffle House early....
