Homemade
Bread Day – This
is a day to make some homemade bread. If you are baking challenged,
don't worry. It doesn't say anything about making homemade bread
from scratch so feel free to make something from a mix. You also
don't need to use yeast if you don't want to, quick breads count,
don't use yeast and are very easy to make.
National Unfriend Day – Declared by Jimmy Kimmel in 2012, this is a day to clean out your Facebook friends list by weeding out or “unfriending” anyone you would really rather get rid of or maybe those that you just don't have anything in common with.
World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims – Observed on the third Sunday in November every year, this is a day to remember all those who have died or been injured as a result of a traffic accident. This day was created by the United Nations in 2005 to support the victims and their families and communities all around the world.
World Prematurity Awareness Day – This a day to spread awareness of prematurity and the challenges that preemies and their families can face as they grow. Sometimes premature babies have significant health difficulties so more work is needed to spread the use of intervention strategies that decrease the risk of premature births.
World
Peace Day – Created by Don Morris in the 1990's, this is a day
that reminds us to be kind to everyone around us and to pray for
peace. One thing you can do is drive with your headlights on so
everyone will know that you are demonstrating for peace. Yes, I know
that many cars have their headlights on all the time, let's not burst
Mr. Morris' bubble, after all, he created this day back when that
wasn't an automotive reality.
To
celebrate today, while your bread is baking, get onto Facebook and
start unfriending people. Then while your bread is cooling, say a
prayer for those who have been killed or injured in a traffic
accident. Next, call up all of your friends who are pregnant and
make sure they are getting the proper prenatal care. Finally, go out
and give slices of your bread to everyone you meet, wishing them a
peaceful day.
