Mythology

edit

Saint Nuzzle's Day is said to have began when two lions, Puddle and Flop, nuzzled each other for so long that they feel asleep. Legend has it that the cuttlefish in the sea noticed this and, being very celebratory fish, twirled away to spread the good news.

Etymology

edit

Despite pressure on the Catholic church, no Saint Nuzzle has been identified.


Traditional Foods

edit

Typically on Saint Nuzzle's Day at least one meal is dedicated to the consumption of a burrito. The burrito is symbolic of the act of nuzzling, as the ingredients are tightly snuggled inside the tortilla. Often a single, large, gooey cookie is eaten as well.
