November 17 - National Baklava Day

Am I the only one who thinks of the Genie from Aladdin anytime mentions #Baklava??? Go on . . . you know you want to sing that line now: "How 'bout a little more Baklava-a-a-a?"

HOW TO CELEBRATE -

• MAKE BAKLAVA AT HOME - Find a recipe online, and work your magic in the kitchen.

• VISIT A LOCAL BAKERY - This complex dessert can be intimidating to make, so you can leave all the hard work to the professionals. No magic lamp is required!

• SHARE THE LOVE - If you are purchasing baklava, be sure to snap a photo while you are at the Cave of Wonders!!! Your local bakery would greatly appreciate a shout out online.
