This is yet another day celebrating a really, really specific type of food. Not merely a waffle, but an oatmeal waffle, and not merely an oatmeal waffle but an oatmeal nut waffle.
Waffles are made from dough that is cooked between two plates, or "waffle irons," which gives them their distinctive appearance. In oatmeal nut waffles, the dough is made as usual, only oats and chopped nuts (of whatever type) are folded into the mixture before it is cooked.
The waffles are then cooked, as usual, and are usually eaten for breakfast, perhaps with a sweet accompaniment, such as maple syrup or fruit. This is a healthier version of the normal waffle recipe. Of course, to keep it healthier, fruit is a far better accompaniment than maple syrup is.
