National Food Months and Days

I love to surf the net … it’s a virtual paradise of mostly useful and some not so useful information… and I am an information junkie… food and otherwise… I found a nifty list of all the “National Food Months and Days” celebrations…. and it got me to thinking…. so I’ve decided to include a good many in this blog…

I thought it would be fun to feature a recipe that celebrated the day…. hey.. you can amaze your friends and family with your quirky tidbits of info… a fun idea to bring something to work to celebrate the day… especially the lesser known ones… I’ll start a section just for food celebrations so you can plan in advance…. And I’ll publish the recipe in advance….so you can be plan your celebration recipe.

I have to add this final comment.... I had no idea what wacko "National Food Days" we had.... but publish them I will.... if nothing else... amaze your friends with the trivia and an occasional recipe.... have fun!
