Dress Up Your Pet Day
This Silly Holiday makes me laugh. Yes, I have been known to gawk at the cute little outfits…but I have a CAT not a DOG. Who dresses up their cat? I will be honest and say it wasn’t my idea, it was my ex-roommates idea. I would go on plane trips where I couldn’t take […]

National French Fries Day
French Fries are a luxury in my diet, not a standard. I didn’t grow up in a fast food and hamburger & fries family. (thanks mom) When my mom would ‘allow’ us to have french fries, it was a treat. And if I really look back, it was probably because she was craving them herself, […]

Girl Scout Day and Cookie Selling Life Skills
