National Cherry Turnover Day
National Cherry Turnover Day (in the USA) is celebrated on August 28 every year.
This day commemorates the creation of the cherry turnover, a pastry made with puff pastry and filled with sweetened cherries. The cherry turnover is believed to have originated in the United States in the 19th century.
Creation dates, in my opinion are hard to nail down. However, today is a good excuse to pick up a turnover on my weekly trip to the supermarket.
