Today we celebrate:

International Human Solidarity Day – Created by the United Nations General Assembly in 2005 for the purpose of recognizing shared values between people in the world and using those values to fight against poverty and promote human and social development in the poorest areas of the world.

Go Caroling Day –
Who wants to wander the neighborhood singing Christmas Carols in the cold and whatever weather is happening in your area? Anyone? Excellent! I'll meet you outside.

National Sangria Day –
A delicious, fruity wine that is made like a punch is called sangria because it's red and sangre is Spanish for blood. It is sweet and refreshing and good any time of year not just this season. But it's great if you're going to have a party.

Underdog Day
– Celebrated on the third Friday in December, this is a day to root for the Underdog. An underdog is someone who is not expected to win. There can be underdogs in just about any category of life but we hear the term most often in reference to sporting events.

To celebrate today, cheer on the underdog of your caroling group and toast him/her with your sangria in a gesture of solidarity.
