How to celebrate Jan 7th

Start your day by enjoying some delicious tempura for breakfast. You can easily make tempura at home with just a few ingredients like shrimp, vegetables, and tempura batter mix. Experiment with different dipping sauces or try making a tempura bowl with rice.

After breakfast, why not indulge in a little bit of fun by creating your own bobblehead? You can easily find DIY bobblehead kits online or at your local craft store. Personalize your bobblehead to look like yourself or someone you admire, and proudly display it in your home as a unique keepsake.

Next, get active and celebrate Harlem Globetrotter’s Day by practicing your basketball skills. Head to a nearby court or even just shoot some hoops in your backyard. Challenge yourself with some trick shots or invite friends and family to join in for a friendly game.

For lunch, consider packing a picnic and heading to a local park to enjoy the Alilo Parade festivities. Embrace the spirit of the parade by wearing colorful clothes and bringing along some traditional Georgian snacks like churchkhela or gozinaki.

Take some time to appreciate the beauty of nature on Old Rock Day by going for a hike or simply spending time outdoors. Look for interesting rocks or fossils, and maybe even start a collection of your own.

As the day winds down, unwind and have a little fun on National Pass Gas Day. Watch a funny movie or tell silly jokes with friends to lighten the mood and share some laughs.

For dinner, celebrate I’m Not Going To Take It Anymore Day by treating yourself to a delicious meal at your favorite restaurant or ordering takeout from a new place you’ve been wanting to try. Remember to savor every bite and enjoy the moment.

Wrap up your day by learning more about different cultures on Orthodox Christmas Day and Coptic Christmas. Try cooking a traditional dish from one of these cultures or watching a documentary to expand your knowledge and appreciation of diverse traditions.
