Today we celebrate:

AFRMA Fancy Rat and Mouse Day – AFRMA stands for the American Fancy Rat and Mouse Association and their goal today is to convince you that Fancy Rats and Mice (which are apparently different from regular old rats and mice) would make great pets. My children better not listen. http://www.afrma.org/

National Pizza with the Works Except Anchovies Day – While there are some unusual people in this world, with messed up taste buds, who actually enjoy anchovies on their pizza, I am convinced that they are in the minority. So make sure when you order your pizza with everything on it today, add in the “except anchovies” or you will for sure find some on your pizza and that will just ruin the whole thing.

Baha'u'llah Day – This day celebrates the birth of Baha'u'llah, the founder of the Baha'i religion, in 1817.  However, I understand that the Universal House of Justice has decided to change when this event and the birth of the Bab (the Twin Holy Birthdays) will be celebrated from now on.  In the future, they will be celebrated on the first and second day after the eighth new moon after Naw-Ruz beginning on March 20, 2015.  This means that the day of celebration will change from year to year.

Chicken Soup for the Soul Day - Twenty years ago, the book “Chicken Soup for the Soul” was released. If you haven't read it, it is a book (and there have been many others to follow it) filled with inspirational and amazing stories that Mark Victor Hansen and Jack Canfield collected from the public. Read it today to celebrate your own life adventures and experiences.


To celebrate today, read a book about Baha'u'llah while you eat your pizza with everything but anchovies. Then read “Chicken Soup for the Soul” to your Fancy Rats and Mice.
