How to celebrate Dec 13th

You wake up to the gentle sound of a violin playing in the distance. It’s National Violin Day, setting the tone for a day full of unexpected enjoyment. Start your day with a cup of hot cocoa to celebrate National Cocoa Day. Pair it with a slice of toast topped with cream cheese frosting for a unique breakfast blend. As you savor the flavors, plan an afternoon visit to a local stable in honor of the Day of the Horse. Groom a horse, take a riding lesson, or simply enjoy the majesty of these beautiful animals.

In the spirit of camaraderie, reach out to a friend and celebrate by picking a pathologist pal for Pick a Pathologist Pal Day. Visit a local museum with medical exhibits or watch a forensic science documentary together. Show appreciation for the armed forces on U.S. National Guard Birthday by writing letters of thanks to members serving overseas.

End your day by lighting candles to commemorate St. Lucia Day. Bask in the warm, flickering glow and indulge in a traditional Swedish meal featuring saffron buns or ginger cookies. As you reflect on the day’s activities, remember the harmony found in embracing unexpected celebrations. Cheers to embracing the unexpected and finding joy in the everyday!
