Wednesday, February 17, 2010

I've decided the only way to make this blog regular is to post it BEFORE the meeting.

Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, which means fish and seafood in all forms are widely available at deeply discounted prices – and are being heavily promoted even when they’re not deeply discounted.. Appropriately for the season, tomorrow is – for absolutely no reason I’ve been able to determine, as Lent rarely starts this early in the year – Crab-Stuffed Flounder Day. It’s also Drink Wine Day, and the day after, the 19th, is Mint Chocolate Day.

February 17th: National Indian Pudding Day
February 18th: Crab-Stuffed Flounder Day, Drink Wine Day
February 19th: National Chocolate Mint Day
February 20th: National Cherry Pie Day
February 21st: National Sticky Bun Day
February 22nd: National Margarita Day
February 23rd: National Banana Bread Day, Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day (I have eaten both and can state unequivocally that the former is by far to be preferred)
February 24th: National Tortilla Chip Day
