How to celebrate Dec 27th

Leftovers from yesterday’s dinner are the unsung heroes of the kitchen. Heat them up and enjoy a delicious meal without all the hassle of cooking from scratch. Next, dive into the depths of your pantry and retrieve that fruitcake that you received as a gift last Christmas. National Fruitcake Day is the perfect excuse to finally take a bite and see if it’s as bad as everyone says. If it’s not your cup of tea, turn it into a fun game with your family and friends – fruitcake target practice anyone?

Feeling adventurous? Pack your bags – or just grab your keys – and head to the nearest zoo. Visit The Zoo Day is all about appreciating the beauty and diversity of the animal kingdom. From majestic lions to quirky penguins, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. If you can’t make it to a zoo, bring the zoo to you by watching a documentary or live stream online.

Wind down the day by channeling your inner artist and celebrating Make Cut-Out Snowflakes Day. All you need is paper and scissors to create intricate designs that will impress even the toughest critics. Hang them around your home for a touch of winter wonderland magic.

Leftovers, fruitcake, zoo animals, and snowflakes – who knew such a motley crew of holidays could make for such a delightful day? So go forth and embrace the weirdness!
