November 2, 2010

The year is winding down. It’s exciting and scary at the same time. Exciting being that the holiday season is coming up but also scary to think that the year has gone by so quickly. November is a month to take time to think about what you are thankful for. It’s a time for gratitude. But it’s also a time to have some fun…. November is National Pomegranate Month, Peanut Butter Lover’s Month, Vegan Month. It’s also a time to better communicate with people, esp during  World Communication Week (Nov 1-7).

Fundays- December

December 4, 2009

Everyday should be a holiday.

Boston thinks this. They have so many holidays, and so many parades. No joke. In 2009 there were over 25 parades that celebrated everything from St Patrick’s Day, Independence Day (even Greek), Gay Pride, neighborhoods, revolutionary war battles, pets, nationalities, etc. So if the city of Boston can have Evacuation Day, Patriots’ Day, or Bunker Hill Day there can be National Cookie Day.
