National Artichoke Day - A Holiday For Every Day!


Nerd Alert, Nerd Alert!  Did you know that today is National Artichoke Day?




Yes, I have been known to frequent websites that list crazy holidays or National celebrations that you've probably never heard of.....like....

  • National Kissing Day
  • National Lemonade Day  
  • National Cheese Lovers Day

I'll bet you've never heard of those, right?  In fact, that's one of the ways I began to find content for my blog, when I started writing 7 years ago.  

It was a fun way to find themed products - National Cheese Lovers Day meant I got some cool swag from a cheese company and had fun sampling and posting about it. 

I used to find these crazy holidays from a few different websites, but I'm excited to share that I'm partnering with this cool viral holiday website  National Today [https://nationaltoday.com/] where all the holidays are right at my fingertips and I can find a reason to celebrate silly things all year long! 

Stay tuned and keep an eye out for these fun and interesting national holidays that you've never heard of!


Here are a few fun ones to wet your whistle for the month of March:

International Day of Forests (Mar. 21) 
Forests are the lungs of our earth! 

National Puppy Day (Mar. 23)
We all deserve a puppy (or five).

Red Nose Day (Mar. 24)

This holiday is huge in the U.K. — it’s comedy relief for charity!
