Thursdays in Sweden the tradition tells us to eat pancakes, pea soup (evokes some strange allusions, pronounced in English), mustard and drinking punch.

However, so far we haven't followed this tradition here in France but The Swedish Academy, always gather their members on Thursdays, eating and (mostly?) drinking the above mentioned delicacies(?).
This tradition dates back to the 18th century.

What we will eat today I don't know as the only thing I do in the kitchen - when it comes to cooking - is (exactly!) pancakes, crêpes, waffles and cakes/pastries. But I'm very good at it!
