This is an interesting sounding name and it is a national holiday from New Zealand. To celebrate, I cooked up some New Zealand lamb rib chops and tried my hand at their "national dessert": a meringue cake called pavlova. I like instructional recipes like this one, where we learn the science behind the cooking. (Which is why I was always a fan of Alton Brown's Good Eats.) I can say for sure that my technique on baking pavlova needs much improvement, though the end result still tasted very nice.
Remember to celebrate these holidays FTVTL with a little extra zest. Oh yeah, just a reminder, we already celebrated the very last Christmas, in 2011. Not trying to be a killjoy...
