National Sticky Bun Day
February 21st, 2012
Pennsylvania does it again! German settlers created "schnecken," the original sticky bun, and to this day they are considered a Philadelphian specialty. You don't have to go to Philly to get one of these sweet treats, but it couldn't hurt! Unless you eat too much scrapple or cheese steaks first.
Mardi Gras
February 21st, 2012
Celebrated annually in New Orleans with parades, floats, and costumes (not to mention drinking and debauchery) the origin of Mardi Gras dates back centuries. The party started off small, with 16 men pushing a bull's head through town on Fat Tuesday, but like so many parties that start off with a bull's head, it just kind of developed a life of its own. And over the years it's turned into a city-wide celebration and tourist destination.

I always carry a pocket full of doughnut holes. Although, they are various sizes, they take up no room in my pocket. They have no calories; but, they have no taste.
International World Thinking Day
February 22nd, 2012
Open your mind! That's what the Girl Scouts and Girl Guides of the world do today. Well, they think and also play games, do activities and get into projects that have global themes. Wonder what a 'Think Master' merit badge looks like'
National Margarita Day
February 22nd, 2012
You don't have to wait until Cinco de Mayo to celebrate the greatest beverage ever created by... well we're not really sure who actually created this drink. Dozens of bartenders claim the glory. But after 2 or 3 of them, who really cares? Salud!
Walking the Dog Day
February 22nd, 2012
Hey! Let your poor pooch out! Whether for a walk around the block or up the side of a mountain, today treat your terrier to the walk of his life! Or allow your St. Bernard to drag you along for the ride!
I can't believe Hallmark left out Ash Wednesday. They have all these other holidays, but leave out today's most important!
Only 52 days until the Spring Game!!!!
