Your guide to celebrating November 17 2020
Skip to all 15 daysWant to make the most of a day filled with opportunities for fun and celebration? Start by setting the tone for a day of exploration and discovery by taking a hike. Whether it’s through a local park, a nature reserve, or even just around your neighborhood, getting out and about will kick off your day on the right foot.
After working up an appetite during your hike, why not channel your inner entrepreneur and bake some homemade bread? There’s nothing quite like the smell of fresh bread baking in the oven, and it’s a satisfying activity that can be enjoyed solo or with friends and family. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, try your hand at making baklava too – a sweet and nutty treat that will surely impress.
To continue the culinary festivities, celebrate National Reuben Day by making your own delicious version of this classic sandwich. Pair it with a glass of Zinfandel to honor the wine enthusiasts out there and elevate your meal to a whole new level.
As the day progresses, take a moment to reflect on the importance of freedom and democracy by learning about the struggles faced by many around the world. This can serve as a reminder to appreciate the rights and privileges we often take for granted.
Cap off your day by reaching out to loved ones, especially working daughters, and survivors of suicide loss, to show your support and appreciation. A simple gesture or kind message can go a long way in making someone’s day brighter.
Last but certainly not least, celebrate the joy of friendship by participating in International Happy Gose Day – a reminder to spread happiness and positivity wherever you go. After all, a day filled with good food, meaningful connections, and a touch of adventure is a day well spent. Cheers to making the most of these weird and wonderful holidays!
