Elvis appears on the Ed Sullivan Show – 1956

A Tip of the Hat Goes to…
NATIONAL BOSS/EMPLOYEE EXCHANGE DAY could turn out to be a day of insight or a day of disaster. By switching places for a day, you get to see how the other half lives and what their job entails. As long as the train doesn’t run off the track, it could be beneficial and fun.
For Fun
NATIONAL TEDDY BEAR DAY brings back our childhood as we celebrate this huggable toy and its history. President Teddy Roosevelt refused to shoot a bear cub while he was hunting in Mississippi. This made national news and a resulting cartoon inspired store owner Morris Michtum to invent the Teddy Bear. Give your Teddy bear a squeeze today – whatever or whoever that is.
Put your thinking caps on for INTERNATIONAL SUDOKU DAY. All you gotta do is be able to count to nine and add. That’s all. WHY IS IT SO HARD????
On Today’s Menu…
Who’s up for WIENER SCHNITZEL DAY? This lightly breaded veal is fried in butter and served ready to eat. Make it into a sandwich or keep it solo – either way is good.
Did someone say “steak”? They sure did because it’s STEAK AU POIVRE DAY. The French did it again by starting with a tender filet mignon and then searing and serving it in peppercorn sauce that makes for a mouthwatering savory meal you won’t soon forget.
