I Love Lucy premieres on this day in 1951
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
A Tip of the Hat Goes to…
PHARMACY TECHNICIAN DAY thanks those people who work in an always evolving, complex atmosphere while taking care of their customers. Dealing with insurance companies, doctors and the public (which is sometimes not very patient) calls for quite the character. Thank you for what you do.
NATIONAL AESTHETICIAN DAY thanks all of the beauty experts who take care of our largest organ – our skin. They can get the most sensitive skin glowing and leave their clients feeling refreshed.
Awareness Spotlight shines on…
PREGNANCY AND INFANT LOSS REMEBRANCE DAY remembers the loss of those who were just starting out in life. Our hearts go out to their families and loved ones. It is something you never completely get over.
PRO-LIFE DAY OF SILENT SOLIDARITY is promoted by Students for Life. By keeping silent for the day and/or wearing a red armband, they bring awareness to their stance on this sensitive, yet very important issue.
WHITE CANE SAFETY DAY recognizes the achievements of the sight impaired as well as the advancements in technology and medicine to help them improve their lives. No matter how fancy we get with the tech, the white cane will always be their principal symbol of independence.
Education and Information
NATIONAL HSA AWARENESS DAY wants to educate us about Health Savings Accounts. These savings accounts are used to cover medical expenses. Your employer may contribute to it, but the account is under your control.

WORLD STUDENT’S DAY is for all who learn and study about life.
For Fun
I LOVE LUCY DAY commemorates a TV Show that had a lot of firsts. It was the first show that was filmed before a live audience. It was the most watched show in four of its six seasons and when it ended, it was at the top of the Nielson ratings. We do love Lucy and the laughter she brought us.
NATIONAL GROUCH DAY gives us the excuse to be a little grumpy today. You don’t have to be rude; you just don’t have to be as nice.
On Today’s Menu…
NATIONAL MUSHROOM DAY celebrates the edible fungus that goes great in soup, with sauce over some meat or in so many recipes.
NATIONAL CHEESE CURD DAY is brought to us by Culvers. These little bits of fried cheese hit the spot and if you want to top off your meal with some of that Culver’s custard – so much the better.
NATIONAL SHAWARMA DAY is another one that is cooked low and slow. This time, Mediterranean herbs and spices flavor the beef, chicken or pork and make for a savory goodness that is hard to beat.

Our dessert of the day is a mix of sweet and sour with NATIONAL LEMON BAR DAY. Lemon pie filling on top of a shortbread crust and then cut into squares will leave a sweet taste in your mouth that is oh, so good.
