How to celebrate Jul 4th
You could start your day by making a Caesar salad for breakfast to kick things off. Then, why not dive into a good novel or watch a movie adaptation of “Alice in Wonderland”? For lunch, fire up the grill and indulge in some delicious barbecued spareribs. In the afternoon, celebrate by going meatless and trying out some new tasty vegetarian dishes – maybe even some jackfruit tacos.
Later on, embrace your inner hillbilly by enjoying some down-home activities like a backyard bonfire or a game of horseshoes. Get creative and have fun on ‘ Invisible Day‘ by doing a random act of kindness anonymously. Celebrate friendships on Filipino-American Friendship Day by reaching out to a friend or loved one and catching up over the phone or online.
As the day winds down, have a laugh on Comic Sans Day by sending some silly memes or jokes to friends. Experiment with cooking an egg on the sidewalk for Sidewalk Egg Frying Day – just make sure it’s hot enough outside! Finally, end your day by learning about Caribbean culture on Caribbean Community Day, maybe by trying a new Caribbean recipe or listening to some reggae music.
There you have it – a full day of celebrating a motley crew of weird national holidays. Have fun, get creative, and enjoy the journey!
