Labor Day Lobster? Public Holiday Nourishment.

It's ANZAC day today - one of the justifiably significant days on Australia's national calendar. Unlike a number of national days, this one comes with a snack! If you've never eaten an ANZAC biscuit, chances are you've not been in Australia very long. I like this association between an event and a food. And I think there should be more of it.

I think we should have the chance to chow down on Foundation Day muffins, Labor Day baguettes and New Year's Day crumpets. In fact, we may need to create some additional holidays for some culinary delights that might otherwise go uncelebrated. To that end, May 7th is now Bradman Day. We traditionally have croissants.
