Today we celebrate:
National Pina Colada Day –
Coconut, pineapple and rum...a delicious combination.
Clerihew Day – Edmund Clerihew
Bentley, born on this day in 1875, was a journalist and the author of
a detective novel, Trent's Last Case. He is best known for a
verse he created in a form that is now known as the clerihew. Two
rhyming couplets of differing lengths:
Edmund's middle name was Clerihew
A name possessed by very few,
But verses by Mr. Bentley
Succeeded eminently.
Terry Bears' Picnic Day – This
is a day to have a picnic with your teddy bear. Feel free to borrow
one from your kids but better yet, make this a family event and bring
all the kids and all of their teddy bears. I bet even the older kids
will enjoy a fun family day like this.
To celebrate today, create some
clerihew verses with your kids and feel free to get silly with it.
Then plan a picnic with your kids and their teddy bears. Make sure
you pack some pina coladas for yourself and your significant other to
enjoy as long as you are over 21.
