QUOTE(haute ecole rider @ Jan 10 2025, 05:37 PM)  Never having had semla, I have no idea how many it would take to feel full. That said, I'm voting for 21. In other news, I just heard from my sister - my BIL came home this afternoon for hospice care. I'm grieving to lose him, but I'm also relieved that he will have peace and quiet for his final days. His daughter has already flown out and will be with them; my sister also has a circle of friends from college who have kept in touch all these years and are living in CO (one big reason they decided to retire there), and I know they will be there to support my sister through this tough time. I’m so sorry Rider. I wish him, your family, and yourself peace in his final days. Make him comfortable and enjoy the time you have left with him. -------------------- "Family is an odd thing, is it not? Defined by blood, separated by blood, joined by blood.

So ‘Rocu, please excuse my American ignorance on this subject, but is “waffle season” just a ‘Rocu thing or is it an actual European custom?

Yes! Anoither one but a big one this time, and the best kind!
X5And of course; @Khajiit - Don't know what they do down in Europe, but here in Scandinavia it's totally a thing and not just me. It stems from the word "Vårfrudagen" which I don't know how to properly translate. But over time it became "våffeldagen" which is supposed to only be waffles for one day but as everything else has expanded into what you could call a season. -------------------- Lol bird

So is this in observance of anything in particular? Maybe connected to the“Easter” religious observances? Or just a celebration of waffles? -------------------- "Family is an odd thing, is it not?

It's sort of to do with celebrating the return of spring which is why the day in question is in March.
Remember, kids; never miss an opportunity to celebrate something by eating something! -------------------- Lol bird
