How to celebrate Dec 17th
Start your day by indulging in a sweet breakfast with some delicious maple syrup. Pancakes, waffles, or even oatmeal can be transformed with a generous drizzle of this amber nectar.
Next, take a moment to appreciate the devices that make our lives easier. Spend some time cleaning your phone, laptop, or any gadgets that you use daily. Organize your digital files, update your software, and declutter your emails to ensure smooth functioning.
For a fun and educational activity, learn about the invention of the airplane by the Wright Brothers. Watch a documentary, read an article, or listen to a podcast that delves into their pioneering spirit and the challenges they overcame.
To combine all three themes, consider a creative cooking session. Use your device to search for unique maple syrup recipes and try your hand at making a tasty dish. Bonus points if you pretend you’re in a Wright Brothers era kitchen, experimenting with innovative flavors.
Wind down by cozying up with a movie or book that pays homage to innovation, aviation, or simply features a scene with a delicious breakfast. Let the day’s festivities inspire you to dream big and appreciate the little things that make life sweeter.
