It’s Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie Day! I have fond memories of picking rhubarb with my grandma, and while this type of pie is my second-favorite after apple, it doesn’t grow well where I am now.

Whether you like it extra dry with a twist of lemon in a Gin & Tonic or infused with additional botanicals (like I do) in a classy cocktail like a Bee Knees (also a favorite), let’s raise a toast (responsibly)
Happy Donut Day – the day that’s all about grabbing your favorite donut and enjoying every bite. My personal favorites are blueberry cake, Boston cream, and lemon filled. Also, Dunkin in infinitely superior to Krispy Kreme. What are your favorite donuts or controversial donut opinions?
Today’s the purrfectly cheesy blend of Hug Your Cat Day and Cheese Day! Give your feline friend an extra cuddle as you chow down on your favorite cheese – and don’t forget to pay the Cheese Tax; they can have a little cheese, as a treat
Share your cats and/or cheeses and spread the joy!
It’s World Cider Day. I once picked apples for an orchard to make cider; I don’t think I was very good at it, though. Nevertheless, whether you enjoy it hot or chilled, crisp and dry, sweet and fruity, or with a hint of spice, celebrate today by raising a glass of your favorite cider!
