Your guide to celebrating September 25 2011
Skip to all 18 daysSeptember 25 brings 27 observances, led by National Comic Book Day, with National Quesadilla Day, National Doodle Day, and a ready-made reason to keep the evening easy.
Pick a story before lunch
Make one deliberate stop at the library or a comic shop, then bring home a single issue, a graphic novel, a manga volume, or a collection of newspaper strips. The point is to read something with pictures on the page, not to build an ambitious pile. Give yourself 30 quiet minutes with a drink, and notice one panel whose color, pacing, or expression does a lot of work without dialogue. If you are sharing the day with someone, trade books after the first chapter and tell each other which page you would frame.
Build a reading-table dinner
For National Quesadilla Day, set out tortillas, shredded cheese, and two fillings such as black beans and sautéed peppers. Cook each quesadilla in a skillet for three to four minutes per side, then cut it into wedges so nobody has to leave the story for long. Salsa, hot sauce, and sliced avocado make it feel like a meal without turning the kitchen into the main event.
National Quesadilla Day
Enjoy the fun and flavor that comes with this festive and delicious day: National Quesadilla Day! History of National Quesadilla Day Quesadillas were likely invented in the southern regions of Mexico where Aztecs would have made corn tortillas. It’s unclear exactly who started filling these corn tortillas with cheese. While…
Draw the scene that did not make the page
After eating, give National Doodle Day ten minutes and one sheet of paper. Copy a favorite object from what you read, invent a side character, or draw four boxes showing what happens between two scenes. Use a pen, pencil, or whatever is closest. Keep the boxes small, add speech bubbles if you want them, and stop when the timer rings. A doodle is finished when you say it is.
National Doodle Day
Support funding and research into epilepsy, simply by doodling and submitting your little works of art with a donation to this important cause.
Let the credits roll
Put on a short playlist for National One-Hit Wonder Day while you look over the drawings or return to the comic. Ask each person to add one song, then vote for the track that would play over the final page. Keep the volume low enough to talk over it. Readers who want one extra thread for September 25 could plan a lobster roll supper for National Lobster Day, or make a small donation to a wildlife group in recognition of Save the Koala Day.
