A guide to celebrating May 13th

Ready for a day of pure randomness? Let’s jump in feet first!

Start your day by celebrating Leprechaun Day with a breakfast fit for a magical creature: green pancakes! Just add a few drops of food coloring to your pancake batter and voila! Next up, it’s National Frog Jumping Day! Head to a nearby park or pond and hold your very own frog jumping competition. Don’t forget to award the fastest frog with a little prize.

For lunch, embrace International Hummus Day by making your very own hummus at home. All you need is chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. Blend it all up and enjoy with some fresh veggies or pita bread. Then, celebrate Top Gun Day by having a movie marathon featuring all the Top Gun films. Get into the fighter pilot spirit!

In the afternoon, observe National Apple Pie Day by baking a delicious apple pie to enjoy for dessert later. While the pie is in the oven, prepare for World Cocktail Day by trying out some fun cocktail recipes. Don’t worry if you don’t have a full bar – simple drinks like rum and coke or vodka cranberry are easy to whip up.

As evening falls, cap off your day with National Crouton Day by making homemade croutons to sprinkle over a fresh salad. It’s a simple way to add some crunch to your meal. And if you’re feeling extra adventurous, create a themed cocktail to go along with your dinner. Cheers to a day filled with unexpected celebrations and delicious treats!
