Hubby sent me an e-mail about our upcoming wedding anniversary – did I want to go out to dinner? He had been looking for a French Restaurant in our little Ag town, and the only thing that came up was Mimi’s Café. Yeah, like that’s a French Restaurant!

Just as Memorial Day is the unofficial start to summer, Labor Day is the unofficial end. There is reason for this. Once upon a time, most school years ended shortly after Memorial Day. And the new school year didn’t begin until the Tuesday following Labor Day. Hence summer – as in summer vacation was between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Did you know that today is National Baby Back Ribs Day? Seems we’ve been eating a lot of ribs lately. Not long ago, I made Braised Short Ribs served on a bed of Pureed Potatoes. There’s a story behind that, and I’ll share it when I share my recipe.

Today is one of those two-for-one specials. On September 2, 1945 the War in the Pacific was officially over – the Ts were crossed and the surrender officially signed. In the past we have concentrated on that particular event. But not this time around.

Way back in 2019, before the world completely lost its collective mind, we shared the quirky yet interesting history of National Chicken Boy Day. It’s all about an iconic LA landmark that once stood on Route 66. As the name implies, it’s a boy with a chicken head.

It’s National Beach Day! What began as a way to recruit younger family men to the Knights of Columbus by hosting a Day at the Beach never caught on. But it was revived years later as a National Clean Up Project.

John the Baptist, John the Forerunner, John the Immerser, John the Baptiser and the Prophet Yahya. Each of these is a recognized name for Saint John, who preached in the wilderness of the coming of the Lord. For his dedication to God, his outspokenness about sin and the need to repent, he was martyred.

Today we get to celebrate a “Two-For-One-Day” in that it is so easy to weave Bow Tie Day into Red Wine Day. Both are stylish, classics. And Bow Ties could mean that thing around your neck or the American Name for Farfalle Pasta.

Has summer ended in your neck of the woods? Are schools open, and family summer vacations fading into memory? It seems the school year begins earlier and earlier. But then, summer vacation also begins earlier and earlier. In America over half of the states mandate that a school year consist of 180 days.

Today is not the Feast Day of Saint Teresa of Calcutta. Feast Days mark the anniversary of their death and entrance into Heaven. With the exception of John the Baptist, Nativities or birthdays of Saints are not celebrated. Yes, we celebrate the birth of Jesus. He is not a saint. He is our Lord and Savior, come down from Heaven to die for our sins.

Hubby and I celebrated our Wedding Anniversary recently. It’s been a while since we actually went out to celebrate. Since we don’t exchange gifts, my “gift” comes from the kitchen. His gift is every day, with the touch of his hand on mine. We hold hands often, and that is more precious than diamonds any day.

Today is the Feast Day of Saint Bartholomew, one of the twelve. With all the popularity that The Chosen has generated, I wanted to take a moment to get to know him better.

Today is National Ride the Wind Day. Isn’t that a catchy title? Ride the wind – the very idea is exciting. But this day is more than just a notion. It commemorated the anniversary of the first human-powered flight to win the Kremer Prize.
