How to celebrate Jul 14th
So you’ve got a tape measure, some mac & cheese, and a newfound love for chimpanzees—sounds like the perfect recipe for a day full of surprises! Start off by measuring everything in sight. Find out just how tall your best friend is, or finally figure out the dimensions of that oddly-shaped closet. Get creative and see where your tape measure can lead you.
Next up, dive into a bowl of delicious mac & cheese. Whether you make it from scratch or opt for the blue box, savor each cheesy bite. Maybe even have a mac & cheese cook-off with friends and see who can whip up the tastiest dish.
Feeling a little wild? Take some time to learn about sharks and why they’re so important to our oceans. Spread awareness about these fascinating creatures and maybe even plan a trip to see them up close in their natural habitat.
As the day continues, celebrate the achievements of women like Emmeline Pankhurst who fought for equality. Learn about her life and the impact she had on history. Be inspired to make a difference in your own way, no matter how small.
Take a moment to appreciate the little things in life by being nice to bugs. Release that spider outside instead of squishing it, or build a cozy home for the ants in your backyard. Every small act of kindness counts.
Finally, strip down and embrace the freedom of National Nude Day! Whether you spend the day lounging around in your birthday suit or partake in a nearby nude beach, revel in the liberation of being your most authentic self.
Finish off your day by raising a glass to each and every weird, wonderful moment you’ve experienced. Whether it’s with a classic Grand Marnier cocktail or a simple toast with friends, cheers to a day filled with tape measures, mac & cheese, chimpanzees, and everything in between.
