Special and Unique Holidays: February 2013

In years passed, I'm usually the last one to know about these fun holidays.  I decided not to let that happen this year.  I'm planning ahead!  You can also be in the know!  Check out my list for the stranger than strange dates, then check out the link to see if I missed anything that should be reported to the masses.

 

First, the MONTH of FEBRUARY is celebrated for many reasons.  Two extremely good reasons to celebrate?! Great American Pie Month AND National Cherry Month.  Are there many better reasons to celebrate? If you combine the 2 together, you get a reason to celebrate even more on February 20th*!

 

I picked out a few good reasons to continue the party DURING the month:National Tortilla Chip Day

 

February 11 ~ Don't Cry over Spilled Milk Day

February 20 ~ Cherry Pie Day*

February 24 ~ National Tortilla Chip Day

February 27 ~ Polar Bear Day

 

I'm not quite sure about the appropriate ways to celebrate, maybe you have some ideas?

Donna -- we just had cherry cobbler last Friday -- but someone missed one of the pits in the cherries.  For really BIG cherry pie, you should look up George, Washington's 4th of July celebration.

Cherry Pie Day - Yum!  Strangely enough, just last night I was thinking how great a piece of that would be!

Well, I get how to celebrate  Cherry Pie day and National Tortilla Chip Day...it's Polar Bear Day that has me worried! lol

I believe that polar bear day involves chopping a hole in the lake before going for a nice winter swim.
