I didn't realize today was International Waffle Day (in Sweden, anyway).
Waffles have a long and distinguished tradition in my family. In addition to being standard breakfast fare most weekends, my parents originated (as far as I know) the concept of the Waffle Party when I was in high school. The premise is simple: the host provides batter and various beers/liquors, while the guests bring their favorite ice cream or waffle topping. Using a number of waffle irons (they had five or six running at a time), doughy goodness was provided for all as they drank themselves stupid.
These occasions also provided ample opportunity for me and my fellow reprobate friends to steal beers from the cooler in the backyard.
I've thrown a few Waffle Parties myself, but have been grossly remiss in doing so lately. That needs to change.
Happy (belated) Waffle Day, everyone.
