June 3 is . . . . . Repeat Day
Repeat Day
When : Always June 3rd
Repeat Day is an opportunity to do things over and over again. Repeat Day is an opportunity to do things over and over again. (hee, hee)
Hopefully you will choose to repeat things you enjoy doing. Pick a wide array of foods, snacks, and activities, and repeat them today. As a matter of fact, it’s perfectly okay to repeat them over and over again today. It’s also perfectly okay to avoid dong things you don’t like. It’s a certainty that you will not enjoy distasteful things the second time around.
For JimC
National Rocky Road Day
When : Always June 2nd
National Rocky Road Day is all about eating ice cream…… specifically Rocky Road ice cream.
Want to make your own Rocky Road Ice Cream? Just add nuts (almonds and/or pecans), mini marshmallows, and chunks of semisweet chocolate to your favorite ice cream recipe. Today would be the perfect day to make, and certainly eat, a batch of Rocky Road ice cream.
If you aren’t into making ice cream, or just don’t have the time, you can buy Rocky Road ice cream at any grocery store. Or, visit your favorite ice cream store for a cone (large today).

June 4 is . . . . . Old Maid’s Day
When : Always on June 4thStill haven’t found “Mr. Right”? Yet, the years are beginning to pile up? Don’t worry or fret. This day is for you. Old Maid’s Day brings awareness to those of us who have not yet found (and caught) our soul mates.
Old Maid’s Day exists to put into the spotlight all of the fair maidens who have yet to find their Prince Charming.
Ladies, celebrate Old Maids Day by getting out and getting noticed. Guys, open your eyes…. “Mrs. Right” may be right under your nose.
—————————————————————–
Origin of Old Maid Day:
The year was 1946 (or thereabouts). WWII was over, and millions of soldiers were returning home. There was a huge increase in marriages. Somewhere during this time, it was noted that there were plenty of Maidens waiting for the returning GIs. And, the ladies were not getting younger as they awaited the return of their GI. The long war had disrupted and put on hold many relationships. And, many GIs did not return home. Dances and socials were held to bring together returning soldiers and the many available, unmarried ladies. It is from this occurrence that Old Maid’s Day emerged. -

Not really a weird holiday but it is the Queen’s Birthday Public Holiday here in Australia … and it is not even her birthday. Her birthday was in April but there were too many other holidays around then so they decided to move it to June … apart from Western Australia who have another holiday in June so they have it in October …. and most Australians dont even want to be a monarchy anymore!

There is a great Paul Bunyun restuarant in Wisconsin Dells. If you ever visit the Dells, I highly reccommend it. They have it set up as if you are a lumberjack actually eating. You get tin cups, plates etc. It’s so “lumberjacky”! Well cute for the kids anyway! Dawn

The U.S. Senate passed a resolution declaring this week as “National Pollinator Week.” This coincides with the release from the Postal Service of four pollinator stamps: a calliope hummingbird, bumblebee, bat, and butterfly, all doing their jobs pollinating. Let see, the US Senate can’t seem to tackle the hard problems facing the nation but they can tell us about the birds and the bees… Talk about a picture perfect moment….:confused:
