Pig in a Blanket Day

 

Pig in a Blanket Day is always April 24th.  No one really knows if this was made up as a restaurant promotion or if somewhere decided that this was a very special treat to them.  Pig in a Blanket Day is a day to eat a sausage wrapped in a pancake, add maple syrup, and chow down.  This was a huge favorite for my kids when they were growing-up.
