National Something on a Stick Day, I celebrated this yesterday. Every Friday until this COVID-19 crisis is over, w are going to get treats in our break room. Yesterday, it was ice cream bars – and no limit how many we could eat! I had a chocolate ice cream bar and an orange creamsicle. Yum!
National Triglycerides Day
National Black Forest Cake Day. I already have some white cake in my fridge, so I’ll have to pass on this one. I don’t think I need any more cake.
National Weed Appreciation Day. Because I don’t appreciate weeds in my garden, I looked further to see what it is we’re supposed to appreciate about weeds. Here is just part of what it said (it went on to list several other edible weeds).
“National Weed Appreciation Day on March 28th each year reminds us that some weeds are beneficial to us and our ecosystem.
Humans have used weeds for food and as herbs for much of recorded history. Some are edible and nutritious while other weeds have medicinal value.
Do you remember as a small child the fun you had with dandelions? Well, these bright yellow flowers serve a purpose. Dandelions are a food source for insects and some birds. Humans eat young dandelion leaves and enjoy tea and wine made from the leaves and flowers. The Native Americans used dandelions to treat certain ailments. Nutritionally, dandelions contain a source of vitamin A and C, calcium, iron and fiber."
