We’ve borrowed a lot of things from the States over the years and claimed them as part of our own culture. So, we feel like it’s practically our right to loan one of their most hallowed national days: National Meatball day. Which, yes, you guessed it, is today.
To say we were thrilled to discover such a day may be the understatement of the year (a big call given it’s only March now). Meatballs are among our favourite foods, mainly because of the way they play so nice with pasta.
So, how best to celebrate this day of days? With spaghetti? With a Joey Tribbiani special? Or what about this:
