Mahedy Day is celebrated in the
UK on 9th December annually, every year. The original, and some say inaugural, Mahedy Day date has been lost to the sands of time and has been overlooked and forgotten by the masses for a number of years.
It has gained notoriety recently and especially during
2018 when it sporadically appeared on a number of calendars and date
based spreadsheets. The perpetrators have not, as
yet, been identified and their motives are unknown but believed to be in good jest.
Not a lot happens on Mahedy Day and any festivities or sacrifices (a food offering) can be undertaken and subsequently dedicated to ‘Mahedy’.
It has been noted from previous Mahedy Day records, that the eating of a flat, round, flour and
water based bread, typically adorned with various meats and vegetables was consumed in its honour.
In modern times, it has now been replaced by the standard pizza (any toppings you desire,
deep pan or thin crust) and keeps in
touch with the original food that paid homage to Mahedy.
Trevor: Hi Mike, are you coming round on the 9th to celebrate Mahedy Day?
Mike: Of course I am. What pizza are we having this year?
Trevor: I was thinking a
deep pan cheese and
tomato with some pulled wild boar
meat and a few rocket leaves for colour.
Mike: Sounds good, mind you anything would be better than last years offering Alan made...
