Your guide to celebrating May 17 2014
Start your day by baking a delicious treat, maybe even walnut cookies or cherry cobbler, to celebrate World Baking Day and National Cherry Cobbler Day. While waiting for your goodies to bake, practice balancing skills on a unicycle for Ride a Unicycle Day – it’s harder than it looks! As you enjoy your baked delights, raise a glass of pinot grigio to celebrate National Pinot Grigio Day.
Take some time to connect with loved ones by celebrating Stepmother’s Day with a heartfelt phone call on World Telecommunications Day. Show appreciation for emergency responders on Emergency Medical Services Day by learning basic first aid techniques.
Spend the afternoon exploring nature on National Idaho Day – go mushroom hunting or simply enjoy a rural life Sunday outdoors. Take a moment to advocate for inclusivity and support on International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia.
End your day by giving back to the community on International Child Helpline Day – donate to a local charity or volunteer your time. Light a candle in remembrance on the International AIDS Candlelight Memorial.
These activities may seem unrelated, but they all share the common theme of celebrating, connecting, and giving back. Enjoy your day of eclectic celebrations!
