In this season of holiday treats, I would expect a special food day to be about some kind of pie, but not pumpkin, that's reserved for Thanksgiving. National Fruit Cake Day also makes sense, although fruit cakes seem to have gone out of style. I may be the only person in the US who really likes fruit cake. Or maybe some kind of special dish like green bean casserole (a classic) or my husband's pineapple stuffing (less well know but delicious, especially with ham)? Anything like that would make sense, but, instead, my west coast brother informed me that today is "National Biscuits and Gravy Day." This would have been a great thing for me to learn, because I really do love good biscuits and gravy. 'A Divine Encounter Cafe' here in Fort Wayne makes the very best, and biscuits and gravy is my favorite restaurant breakfast or brunch. Sadly, by the time I got my brother's text today, it was well past brunch time. But now that he's whetted my appetite, we will find a time this coming week to go there. Happily, my wonder spouse also enjoys breakfasts out. Hmmm, Friday might just work??
