We still have to work and stuff, but we do get a great excuse to eat waffles! Not that I usually need an excuse for that... The funny thing is that originally it's basically just a misunderstanding due to some dialects. It's celebrated on march 25, which is the feast of Annunciation (or Lady Day, wikipedia link), but in swedish the original word for this celebration is "Vårfrudagen" which is quite close to "Våffeldagen" (Waffle Day). In time (around the 17th century) this became the same thing in some dialects, and of course people where real quick to pick this up as an excuse to eat waffles Also, please note that scandinavian waffles aren't exactly the same as the waffles that are more common internationally (which are the Belgian ones, if I'm not mistaken). Have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffles So that's the story... to summarize: come to sweden on march 25, and you'll get to eat lots of waffles!

I am too tired, but you guys almost made me go fire up the waffle maker. http://www.amazon.com/Waring-WMK300-Belgia...7932&sr=8-1 Although i know, should make them from scratch, this stuff is pretty good and available everywhere. http://www.krusteaz.com/brands/krusteaz/pa...ian_waffle_mix/ I just use corn syrup, i prefer it to maple syrup. and i fire maybe 6 strips of bacon, and a glass of milk, and coffee also. Pretty good, and quick. The dog gets his share, but I have to watch it a bit, he is too fat. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Seriously though, belgian waffles and scandinavian ones are quite different, aren't they? Yeah, and Scandinavian ones are quite different from place to place. I think in some parts of Sweden (probably South, since that's closer to me) there's whipped cream in the mix? At least that's what some people here call "Swedish waffles", even if I know Swedes tends to make them pretty much the same as ours.
