October 20th is the Worlds Osteoporosis day and the international day for Air traffic …
Oh, and on the 11th the Nobel Peace Prize will be announced!
October 20 is also National Brandied Fruit Day. Now there’s a reason to celebrate. 🙂
Um, International Moment of Frustration Scream Day? Awesome. Also, now I’ve got a SpongeBob episode in my head thanks to Leif Erickson day. We may have to celebrate that one at our house. Viking helmets, anyone? 🙂
I noticed when you mentioned the Rice Krispie Day a few weeks ago that I hadn’t seen a thing for months! Glad you are back in gear 🙂 I like to take advantage of the chocolate days yet every day is a chocolate day for me! Moldy Cheese Day? YIKES! And reading through all these odd days made me think National “Nut” day was not for the nuts my daughter is allergic to, but for “nuts” as in CRAZY! Take it how you want…
How did i miss world vegetarian day!!!
