Popsicles are frozen juice (or flavoured sweet liquid) on a stick.. a ubiquitous American summer treat. There is a commercially made variety by that name but they can be home made. Kids who have indulged in popsicles also are known to have a sweet sticky residue afterwards all over their hands, face and clothes!

Scrubb, today you can celebrate National Mail Order Catalogue Day. Not tempted? It is also National Ice Cream Pie Day. America has some weird desserts. Though in Sicily you can buy an ice cream sandwich for breakfast. Unfortunately we were there in winter when it wasn't served.

According to my source today is National Bow Day. I do't know whether this means I have to carry a bow and arrow or whether I have to bend low from the waist. If I did both together I fear a painful accident.

It's National Tooth Fairy Day.
Mrs Faz had a tooth extracted last week. She should have kept it to put in her slipper overnight.

It's National Tooth Fairy Day. Mrs Faz had a tooth extracted last week. She should have kept it to put in her slipper overnight. reminds me of a's dilemma - i told her how when i was a kid, there wasn't a tooth fairy, instead i planted my tooth in a flower pot, and the next morning, a chocolate bar had grown from it. so she is kind of torn whether she wants to grow chocolate from her tooth or rather receive a small toy from the tooth fairy ... of course, as none of her teeth are loose yet, she still has time to make up her mind ...

America has a lot of Days to choose from. It is National Lazy Mom Day. It is also Beer Lover's Day. And Salami Day. So I suggest all moms find a hammock and swing gently, beer bottle in one hand, salami sandwich in the other. Or at least do it in their dreams.
