National Slap Your Irritating Co-Worker Day - I would like to stress that this is a tongue in cheek kind of day. The rules are on the website and you are not allowed to blame me if you get fired or arrested if you choose to follow through on celebrating this day. I do not plan to do so. But then, I love my co-workers.
National Boston Cream Pie Day – I'm not sure why it's called pie when it is really much more like a cake with cream filling. It is one of my all time favorite cakes. Now I'm drooling...very undignified of me, sorry.
iPod Day – On this day in 2001, the first iPod was introduced to the world. A pivotal moment in the technological and musical world.
National Mole Day – This day is celebrated every year on this day between 6:02am and 6:02pm. If you are not a math or science maniac, then you might not know that a mole is a basic measuring unit in chemistry, 6.02 x 1023 , also known as Avogadro's Number. This day is an attempt to spread interest in chemistry throughout the world. If you're interested, a mole is equal to the atomic mass of a molecule. There is more to that explanation here.
Swallows Depart from San Juan Capistrano Day – On this day, according to the mental calendar that all swallows have in their heads, the swallows will circle the Mission San Juan Capistrano in California and fly off to wherever they go for the winter. They will return in March.
TV Talk Show Host Day – This day, which just happens to be Johnny Carson's birthday, is a day to celebrate all talk show hosts. Johnny Carson is the most beloved of them all, followed closely by Oprah Winfrey, but there have been many and will be many more since I don't think talk shows are going away anytime soon. People do love to talk, after all.
National Canning Day – This is a day to can all the harvest from your gardens. I don't have very much left from my garden but my husband has already canned many jars of pickles, zucchini relish and chili sauce. So if you have the skills and the equipment and the vegetables, have at it today.
