Today we celebrate:
National Whipped Cream Day – today is the birthday of Aaron Soffer “Bunny” Lapin (do not ask me who gave him that nickname) the founder of Reddi-wip. He was the first one to think of putting whipped cream into an aerosol can, and I'm sure we are all grateful to him. Although some consider this holiday to be insensitive and in bad taste given the state of hunger and malnutrition in the world.

National Bird Day...nearly one-third of the world's parrot species face extinction along with 12 percent of the world's nearly 10,000 bird species. Find a lot of other fascinating information on their website. http://www.nationalbirdday.com/

This one is easy, squirt yourself a bowl of whipped cream (you can put it on something, anything, if you object to eating it all by itself.) and stand at the window with some binoculars and do a little bird watching today.
