Alot of things today! Wednesday June 18th National Splurge Day Its National Splurge Day, oh Yeah! There are certain dates on the calendar that you look forward to with great excitement. You mark the date and wait in eager anticipation. For me, National Splurge Day is one of those very special days. National Splurge Day is a day to treat yourself excessively, to anything you want. And, to excess if you desire. Isnt that a great thing? Maybe, youre on a diet, and that special dessert is too many calories. Maybe, you want to buy a steak, and the budget is a little tight. Toss out the reservations, and go for it today. Celebrate this day to the fullest degree. Treat yourself to whatever you want and to excess . For, this is a day to splurge. Do so without worry or concern...until tomorrow. June 18th is International Sushi Day Sushi really has nothing to do with raw fish. It refers to the vinegar-seasoned rice used in making what we refer to as sushi. There are SO many types of this dish that are generically (often wrongly) called sushi. Sashimi is simply slices of raw fish (often salmon or tuna). It is not served with the sushi rice. Nigiri is made from forming a handful of rice into a mound, and placing a piece of seafood over the top. Maki rolls are made from wrapping sushi rice and various fillings inside a seaweed wrapper. Maki rolls have had the most variations created in Western society. For example, the California Roll is made with avocado, imitation crab and cucumber. There is also the inside-out California Roll that has the rice on the outside. The Philadelphia Roll has smoked salmon, cream cheese, and cucumber. the Texas Roll has tuna, avocado, cucumber, and is rolled in crushed French fried onions. And that little mound of green paste next to your sushi? Thats wasabi. Its goooooood! Today is International Picnic Day! Go Fishing Day Today is Go Fishing Day. Now, this is my kind of day! Its a day to go out and bring home a healthy, tasty, meal for the family. Fishing is hard work. The pressure to bring home a mess of fish to feed the family is almost unbearable. After all, as the Hunter-gatherer of the family, you need to bring home the meal, or the family might starve. The wife doesnt appreciate the difficult task of fishing for long hours under all sorts of weather conditions. The wife thinks were just out having fun....yeah, right. Celebrate today, on the shore or in a boat, with a fishing pole in one hand, and your favorite beverage in the other. And, dont go home until you have caught your limit! International Panic Day Today is International Panic Day, a day for everyone to be worried and concerned. Were not sure what is so big, and so widespread, to create an international incident of this magnitude. But, here it is on the calendar folks......an international day of panic. Today is International Picnic Day!
