National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day

National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day Date When Celebrated :  August 4 th National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day  is today. It may be blisteringly hot outdoors.

All is Ours Days

All is Ours Day Date When Celebrated :  This holiday is always April 8 All is Ours Day is  bound to be a spectacular day for...... us. Think of the concept. Imagine the possibilities. The creator of this day was absolutely brilliant. What a great day this will be. The creator of this day was absolutely brilliant. Let's dissect the meaning and intent of this great day. We will do so by examining the title of this day, word for word. It begins with the word "all". For such a little word, it's all-inclusive. From a possessive standpoint, therefore, we are talking about anything and everything we want.. The verb "is" is sort, sweet and definite. It leaves no room for doubt or question. Finally, the creator chose the word "our" rather than the word "mine" This is a vital decision allowing us to completely enjoy today. The greatest events, and the best things in life, are those that are shared. The only thing the creator left out is the definit

Walk Around Things Day

Date When Celebrated :  This holiday is always April 4 Walk Around Things Day is an important day to avoid problems and risks, by simply walking around the potential problem. You wouldn't walk under a ladder, would you? Then, it is also wise to walk around objects, especially those that pose risk or danger. "Walk around things" can also be used figuratively. It is also wise to walk around, or avoid, topics issues, and problems that are sticky, may provoke an argument, or are not readily solved. If ever was a day to "Walk Around Things", today is that day. Today's Quote:  " I spent half of my money on gambling, alcohol and wild women. The rest I wasted." - - W.C.

Something on a Stick Day

Date When Celebrated :  This holiday is always March 28 Something on a Stick Day celebrates things on a stick. Isn't this just a neat day?  We thought you'd agree. So what comes on a stick? Practically anything. The first thing that comes to mind is popsicles and fudgesicles. Hotdogs and marshmallows on a stick are popular at campfires. There's also corndogs, shrimp and many Chinese treats like pot stickers. When you use chopsticks, everything is on a stick! Cocktail wieners and cheese are picked and eaten on a stick(a toothpick). Wooden skewers used when cooking on the grill, contain all sorts of meats and vegetables. The list goes on and on. You can also get just about anything on a stick when receiving food samples at a store or festival. Celebrate this fun day by serving food for meals and snacks on a stick. The kids will love it. So will you! BTW: We are glad that today is Something on a Stick Day and not "Something on a Shingle Day! Today's Quote:  "Neve

Planning

Starting the dreadlock was going to be the easy part of the journey once I told people about the second part.  I had finally come to the decision that I was going to have weight lose surgery.  I had also come to the conclusion that I wasn’t telling anybody. Do you know how many times we have had these conversations over the years? Did you see what that child went and did to herself? I don’t know why she went and did that. That girl knows she didn’t need to let them people cut on her she look sick. I know I’m not the only one.  We have never once thought about the person carrying around all that extra weight and what it is, they feel. How much pain they are in on a daily basis and then we decided to open our mouths and give our two cents worth. Yeah, I just wasn’t up for the bullshit and I have defiantly reached the point in my life where I know how to move in silence. So, I began my journey. Like a boss! Making plans! Picking out clothes. Planning a life! But what’s that saying If you

National Cheese Lover's Day

Image
On January 20, get ready to ‘havarti’ a ‘gouda’ time, because it’s National Cheese Lover’s Day! Have you ever wondered how the first human discovered cheese? We’ve wondered that too, and we’ll probably never find out. All we know is that it was love at first bite; when the first human tasted the salty, tangy, delicious goodness of cheese, they were hooked. And we can definitively say that human history was forever changed. Cheese might have had mysterious beginnings over 7,000 years ago, but it’s insanely popular today. In the U.S, one-third of all milk produced in this country goes into cheese production. It’s a multi-billion dollar industry! We’re ready to celebrate it. https://nationaltoday.com/national-cheese-lovers-day/ WHY WE LOVE  NATIONAL CHEESE LOVER'S DAY A. It's in the science Did you know that some of the components of milk help calves stay both calm and healthy? Follow-up fact: Did you know that these components get super-concentrated in cheese

Permission

The permission that I felt that I was given to step from my box was freeing and liberating, but to look down and see the box wasn’t even closed anymore made me stop and take a look at the things that I have been thru to get to this point.   And I’m not talking about the everyday struggles that everyone has had to deal with or even the ups and downs of life. Hell, we fight those battles so often we fight them in our sleep.   I just think about the journey that I began last May. I didn’t have a million conversations about it. I didn’t stop and take a poll of my closest family and friends. I have learned a long time ago that allowing everyone to have an opinion in your life is a mistake. I talked to my husband I made two decisions that I knew were going to be big and have huge impacts on my life going forward.   The first was starting dreadlocks.     For some people, it’s not that big but for those that know hair, it’s huge. It’s a commit that’s not easily gotten out of.   It doesn’t he

National Dress Up Your Pet Day

National Dress Up Your Pet Day Date When Celebrated :  Always January 14 th   Great news! You don't have to wait until Hallowen to dress up your pet. National Dress Up Your Pet Day gives you the opportunity to .... you guessed it......dress up your pet! Some pets like to get dressed up. Others, want nothing to do with it. This day is an opportunity to really dress up your pet(s). Make something for them to wear.  Or, go to a pet store and buy an outfit. It's winter, so something warm is best. Sorry, we don't have any ideas on how to dress up goldfish. Origin of National Dress Up Your Pet Day: This special day was created by pet style expert and animal advocate Colleen Paige.
