How to celebrate Sep 1st

Today is all about celebrating the quirky and unexpected. Start your day with a fresh batch of cherry popovers – a delightful treat to kick things off. Next, challenge a friend to a game of chess to honor American Chess Day. Enjoy the strategic gameplay and friendly competition.

In the afternoon, take a drive in a pink Cadillac if you can, or simply appreciate the aesthetic by watching Elvis Presley movies. Then, show some love to our hardworking Building and Code Staff – a simple thank you note can go a long way.

For dinner, get creative with tofu recipes for National Tofu Day. Experiment with different flavors and textures to find a new favorite dish. Afterwards, embrace the art of letter writing on World Letter Writing Day. Pen a heartfelt note to someone special or even to yourself.

As the day winds down, spend some quality time with a ginger cat – whether you have one or find one online. Share cute photos or videos to spread the appreciation. Finally, raise a toast to Emma M. Nutt, the first female telephone operator, while enjoying a piece of chicken in honor of National Chicken Boy Day.

Celebrate the day with whimsy and joy, embracing the unexpected and finding humor in the peculiar. Cheers to a day filled with cherry popovers, chess matches, pink Cadillacs, tofu dishes, heartfelt letters, ginger cats, and a nod to historical figures. Enjoy the randomness of it all!
