Religious Holidays
BIBLE SUNDAY encourages us to delve into the Word of God. This book will impart wisdom, offer peace, give instruction and tell us about history. There are 66 books, written by 40 different authors, in three languages, on three continents over a period of 1600 years – and yet – from Genesis to Revelation it tells of the same God and His plan of salvation. In my opinion, this book is alive, as every time I read a passage I read before, I either get a deeper meaning or a whole new view.
Awareness Spotlight shines on…
SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE DAY – ROE VS WADE DAY – CELEBRATION OF LIFE DAY all show how valuable human life is. One is about infant’s rights, one about mother’s rights and one about children – they all speak to the same thing – it doesn’t matter your age, race, social status, gender or beliefs – all life is precious and needs to be cared for, nurtured and at times – protected.
Today’s Fashion Trends
NATIONAL POLKA DOT DAY dares us to wear anything we have with polka dots. Be the trendsetter and sport a polka dot skirt or bowtie.
On Today’s Menu…
NATIONAL HOT SAUCE DAY brings the heat. The right sauce for the right palate will add the right flavor as well as a little excitement. It’s easy to go a little overboard with this stuff and if that happens there will be a price to pay. Chilula, Tabasco and Franks are all great to add a little zip.
BLONDE BROWNIE DAY leaves the chocolate in the cupboard. Made with brown sugar instead of cocoa, these tasty treats have a distinct molasses flavor. Nuts, butterscotch and toffee are great to add and if you absolutely have to have chocolate, you can always throw in some chocolate chips.
