The term "paella" derives from the Old French word "paelle", meaning pan which is how it was cooked. Considered by many to be the national dish of Spain, paella originated, as many traditional dishes do, as "peasant" food — a rice dish prepared by workers in the field over an open fire and made with rice, meat, or fish...basically whatever food was available. Many countries and regions have their own recipes and variations, it can be made using any meat or fish...however, according to gastrophiles, (aka foodies) the best paellas are made in Spain, on the beach, with fresh seafood.

On February 2, 1876 Club owners meet at New York's Grand Central Hotel to form the National League of Professional Base Ball Clubs, creating the structure that evolves into modern Major League Baseball. The first Major League Baseball game ever played was on April 22, 1876. In the sport's first years, teams would start their seasons on different dates but the league soon realized it was better for the marketing of the game to pick one opening day for all the teams. Today...even if you don't want to or can't attend a game in person...every game is available live on MLB.TV (local and national blackout restrictions apply). The only no-hitter in Opening Day history belongs to Bob Feller of the Cleveland Indians on April 16, 1940...is just one of many fun facts about mlb opening day".

Waffles came to Sweden near the early 1600s and quickly spread to nearby lands. They were often eaten with jams and fruits, establishing themselves as a beloved treat to be eaten at all times of the day. The day itself is the result of a mispronunciation that brought two holidays together. In Sweden, Waffle Day is known as Våffeldagen, which sounded a lot like Vårfrudagen a day that celebrated the Virgin Mary's conception. Because of this lingual connection, it became customary for Swedish families to celebrate Vårfrudagen by eating waffles on Our Lady Day--which is March 25. In 1839, the Belgian waffle was created much thicker than regular waffles and with deeper grids so they hold more butter and syrup!

Many people believe that cocktails originated in the U.S. While this is partly true, cocktails were actually inspired by British punches from the 18th century. British punches were big bowls of spirits mixed with fruit juice, spice, and other flavors. Cocktails became especially popular after alcohol was prohibited in the United States from 1920 to 1933 ironically....hence the advent of the speakeasy. You can find mixology classes too...you will learn more about how and why ingredients are combined the way they are.
