Happy Anzac Day

Anzac Day "marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War. ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps." Today is also a public holiday in Italy; the "Festa della Resistenza (Liberation Day) [which] marks the liberation of Italy by the Allies from German occupation in 1945" and someone-special's birthday.

Try http://www.unibic.com/anzac.php or http://www.aussieslang.com/features/anzac-biscuits.asp (sorry can't be bothered to make them into proper links like a real blogger would).

How was life possible before Google?
