I have decided for this week's Tuesday Ten, I would do things a bit different - instead of sharing 10 weird days I wouldn't celebrate, I am going to share the events; festivals, funny, weird and wonderful holidays that are celebrated on my birthday and on the birthdays of my loved ones. This is going to be very interesting and hilarious...Here we go...
Also celebrated on this day: Get a different name Day
5th March (Master M) - Name Tag Day
Have you ever been to the supermarket or walking down the street and you bump into someone you know...however, you can't remember their name? Ooh I have and it really bugs me. I usually leave that person still not knowing their name until it hits me at the most random time! I am pretty good at remembering faces and names though - it must be because I'm a teacher, and have to remember my students names.
Also celebrated on this day: Absinthe Day and Cheese Doodle Day
8th March (Miss B) - Women's Day
Love this! Girl Power!
Also celebrated on this day: Proof Reading Day, Peanut Cluster Day and Check Your Batteries Day
19th April (Brothers #3 & #4) - Hanging Out Day
It's not what you think...it's not a day where you get to hang out with your mates...Hanging Out Day is when you hang your washing/laundry on the line, using the natural energy of the sun and wind to dry your clothes.
Also celebrated on this day: Bicycle Day and Garlic Day
26th May (My Mum) - World Lindy Hop Day
Also celebrated on this day: Blueberry Cheesecake Day
9th August (My partner) - Rice Pudding Day
Yum! I love Rice Pudding - must remember to celebrate this day.
Also celebrated on this day...Book Lovers Day (Rabia & Lisa - note this in your calendars NOW :))
25th August (Brother #1) - Whiskey Sour Day
Also celebrated on this day...Kiss and Make Up Day
9th October (My Dad) - World Egg Day
Also celebrated on this day...Curious Events Day, World Post Day, Moldy Cheese Day, and Fire Prevention Day.
28th November (mine) - French Toast Day
ARE YOU SERIOUS??? How did I not know this!!! From this year on, I am going to have French Toast on my birthday! (Can someone remind me)
Also celebrated on this day...Small Business Saturday. Share the love and shop with Small Businesses for one day - my birthday! How cool is that! I like this a lot!
and finally...

On my birthday, it's Open An Umbrella In the House Day, among others. I had such fun reading the celebratory events of the year. I'm saying French toast would be a great birthday breakfast. I get Coconut Tortes on my birthday.
ReplyDeleteOooh nice Val! Coconut Tortes sound like a treat! I enjoyed putting this list together - so many weird and wacky days that are celebrated.
DeleteI love the way you did this! I think it's funny that whiskey sour day and kiss and make up day are the same day. Maybe if you drink less, you won't have so much to apologize for!! LOL!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree Rabia!
DeleteOMG! I love what you did with this!!!!! My birthday is March 1st which is also Horse Protection Day, Plan a Solo Vacation Day (Yeah!), Namesake Day, World Compliment Day (I'll take that on my birthday!), Fruit Compote Day, and Pig Day (Um?????). Wow! That's a lot of special celebrations! We actually did a book list post back in February which was Library Lovers Month, but we will have to make note of Book Lovers Day for sure!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa. I remember your Library Lovers Month post - and how much you and Rabia love books. I think I shared Top 10 Children's Books that week...it was fun! What happens on Pig Day?
DeleteLOL. What fun~! Mine is April 8th...Visit a Zoo Day and Draw a Picture of a Bird Day. Who knew? I am driving through on the A to z Road Trip. Starred you so I can find out more!
ReplyDeleteVisit a Zoo Day sounds good to me!! Might have to put that one in my diary for next year :) Oh, thank you! Welcome to my blog :) Thanks for stopping by :)
