In Finland this day is called Laskianinen. It is traditional to have split-pea soup with ham, go out for a sledding adventure and then come home and eat Pulla with whipped cream and almond paste (with coffee, of course). My mom made pulla the other week and I froze a few so that we can eat some tonight.
It's also National Pancake day in the US. Are you giving up anything for lent? Last year I gave up Facebook... I might have to do that again.
