Along with What's Happenin' in September should be added the days of September 19 and 23, which somehow got overlooked on the September calendar. With somethin' happenin' each and every day of the year, these two days definitely do not need to go unnoticed. So, plan ahead and get ready to celebrate...

National Butterscotch Pudding Day

Butterscotch is a type of confectionary basically made with boiling sugar syrup, butter, cream and lemon (recipes do vary). There are several theories on the name and origin of the candy. One is its obvious connection to the country of Scotland. Buttery toffee is sometimes called butterscotch. (Source: History of Butterscotch)

If the pudding alone is not your forte, try using it as a main ingredient in a different recipe. Perhaps muffins will better suit your taste...
