National Chocolate-Covered Cashews
Day – I love cashews but oddly enough, I didn't know they came
covered with chocolate. I will have to seek some out.
Kindergarten Day – Today we
celebrate the birthday of Friedrich Froebe who was born on this day
1782 and started the first kindergarten in 1837. It was a very
popular concept but the government chose to stop it in 1851. A year
later Friedrich died and so wasn't able to see that his idea was
resurrected in Germany in 1860 and in 1873 the first public
kindergarten was opened in St. Louis Missouri
National Drive It Day – Always
on the Sunday nearest to April 23rd, this day celebrates
April 23, 1900 and the 64 cars that left London and embarked upon the
Thousand Mile Trial. Forty-six of the cars finally returned to
London on May 12th. Don't forget that back then cars were
very new and not accustomed to traveling that far. Hence the 18 cars
that didn't make it back in time to be counted in the trial.

To celebrate today, drive your kids to
kindergarten and then spend the rest of the day munching on
chocolate-covered cashews.
