Happy National...

 
 
Mother-in-Law Day
 
If you missed Mother's Day in May, then here's another chance to honor your beloved Mother-In-Law. The source of many jokes, a mother-in-law doesn't usually get the praise and appreciation she deserves.
I'm very thankful my Mother-In-Law and I have a great relationship. We talk daily and send pictures back and forth through our phones :)


Boston Cream Pie Day

There's no way I can let this day slide. The Boston Cream Pie actually was invented in Boston, at the Parker House Hotel, which is also where they invented the Parker House Roll. But that would be another post.
It was invented by a chef named Sanzian, and is the official dessert of Massachusetts. It's called a pie but it's actually a cake.



Mole Day
National Mole Day commemorates Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10^23)

To thoroughly enjoy National Mole Day, one must first understand what a "Mole" in Chemistry is.

A "mole" is a basic measuring unit. It equals the atomic mass of a single molecule. It is measured in grams. This measure was discovered by Italian Amadeo Avogadro.

Chemistry teachers celebrate this day, by getting kids more interested in chemistry. They create special lesson and lab experiments around the theme of chemical measurements.


Why celebrate from 6:02 a.m., to 6:02 p.m? Look at the chemical formula for a mole. It starts with the number 6.02.


Tv Talk Show Host Day
 
Tv Talk Show Host Day celebrates and honors all Tv Talk Show hosts.


This very special day is celebrated on the birth date of legendary night time talk show host Johnny Carson. Carson is considered the "King of late night Television". He hosted The Tonight Show from 1962 to 1992. His reign lasted a record 29 years, 7 months, 21 days. There were 1,859 episodes.


While this day is celebrated on Johnny Carson's birth date, it is intended to show appreciation to all Television talk show hosts, daytime and nighttime.
