Waffle Day
Waffle Day is a tradition that is celebrated in Sweden, and to a lesser extent elsewhere, on March 25. Waffles are typically eaten on this day. The name comes from ''Vårfrudagen'' ("Our Lady's Day"), which in vernacular Swedish sounds almost like ''Våffeldagen'' (waffle day). Our Lady's Day is celebrated on March 25 (nine months before Christmas), the Christian holiday of Annunciation, and the Waffle Day is hence celebrated on the same day although it has no religious connections to Our Lady's Day. In the United States, National Waffle Day is celebrated August 24, the date of a U.S. patent on a waffle iron.〔Cornelius Swartwout Waffle iron issued on August 24, 1869〕 == References == 〔
