Canadians go a little nuts every year on this weekend and there is lots of partying and overindulgence.
Held on the Monday closest to May 24 in celebration of Queen Victoria's birthday, the holiday is affectionately known as May 2-4, derived from the number of beers in a case, all of which you are supposed to drink.
So this year, with my husband out of town on a business trip, my daughter invited her best friend Julia over and we had a girl's night of beer and onion rings. It's not all we had to eat, but it's the important part.
I love onion rings but have long since stopped buying them as they are just too unhealthy to eat. However, the great thing about making them yourself, like all of the Hold the Phone! series is that you know exactly what is in them, and you can make a healthier version of it for yourself.
