Your guide to celebrating November 21 2023
Skip to all 9 daysWarm spices, colorful icing and a couch within easy reach are a strong case for staying in on November 21. Start with National Gingerbread Cookie Day: mix and roll the dough, bring out your favorite seasonal cutters, and bake a batch with lightly crisp edges and soft centers. Once the cookies cool, load piping bags with colorful frosting and add sprinkles or edible glitter. A friendly decorating contest can produce some highly questionable fashion choices for the gingerbread people, which is half the fun. Make an extra batch to share with neighbors or coworkers.
Keep the oven busy for National Stuffing Day. Make a savory stuffing and serve it as the warm centerpiece of a holiday-table-style supper. It has all the comfort of a big gathering without requiring you to wait for an invitation or wrestle an entire feast onto the table. Pull up a chair, spoon out a generous serving and save a little room for the decorated cookie staring back from the dessert plate.

After dinner, World Television Day moves the celebration to the couch. Pick a favorite show, choose a movie, or put on a documentary for a change of pace. Then settle in with a gingerbread cookie for the crucial question of the night: do you eat the head first, or start with a frosted boot?
