The Earth Waffles:Â a celebration guide
As our ancients observed and modern science has confirmed, the Earth has an axial tilt and rotates around the Sun in an elliptical path.
This is what allows for the days of more sunlight hours during Summertime and less sunlight hours during wintertime (relative to ones particular location on Earth). These are called equinoxes and solstices.
The Earth waffles back and forth through out the year on its’ annual laps around the Sun and this is what inspires and informs our The Earth Waffles celebrations.
We have four celebrations yearly;
Eatster: the Spring Equinox
YummerTime: the Summer Solstice
FallWaffle: the Autumn Equinox
Wafflenalia: the Winter Solstice
These varies, slightly, depending where on Earth you happen be celebrating and is information that can be easily obtained and verified through the usual respected sources:

What do we do to celebrate the Earth waffling back and forth?
We consume waffles as close to the local time that applies to your meal times.

Consuming waffles as close to the local applicable time will put in the best possible mindset for upcoming portion of the year. Take your time. Enjoy the process.
