Today we celebrate:

National Indian Pudding Day – This is a day to have some Indian Pudding. I was not able to determine if it means Indian from India pudding or Indian as in Native American pudding. Some sites say one thing, others say another. I did find a recipe that looks pretty good so feel free to try it and tell me what you think. http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/indian_pudding/


Ashura – Sundown today marks the beginning of this Muslim holiday. It is a day of mourning for Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhammad at the Battle of Karbala.

World Kindness Day
– This is a day to make your community and even your world better with at least one act of kindness. Kindness toward others can change the course of someone's life whether you are giving or receiving the kindness. Change someones life today.

To celebrate today, go forth and be kind to everyone you meet by sharing your Indian pudding. After sundown, read about Husayn ibn Ali's life.
