It is Michaelmas day today. I told my wife, Jen, that traditionally it is the day when you feast on goose, fattened on the stubble fields, and that if you eat goose on this day you will never lack money all year. And also, it is as said that Elizabeth I was eating goose on Michaelmas Day 1588 when she heard about the defeat of the Armada and therefore declared that everyone should eat it on this day to commemorate the victory.
My wife replied “We are having pizza.”
I’d much rather have pizza than goose, in fact I just did.

Goose eating day is celebrating mostly in south Sweden. The other parts probably eat pizza instead. Or like me, some healthy greens ๐
