Woohoo .. this is now my favorite month.. because the next few
"National ____ Month" posts are concerning food ! How fantastic is that ?
Well this first post is about how October is National Apple Month
Did you know that there are more than 7,000 varieties of apples ? I bet you didn't !
So go ahead and eat as many apples as you want! Also try to do anything that's apple related.
For starters you should go to the grocery store and buy tons of apples. Any kind of apple will do...Braeburn, Cameo, Fuji, Ginger Gold, Granny Smith, Jonathan, Jonagold, Pink Lady, Red Delicious, Gold Delicious, Red Rome, Winesap, McIntosh, Newtown Pippin, Criterion, Elstar, Gala, etc.
Next you can try doing some apple related activities.. like Apple Picking or Apple Bobbing.
Or you can just cook the apples any way you want. There's apple pie, apple tart, caramel apple, apple strudel, apple crumb cake, apple donuts, apple pie ice cream, apple turnovers, applesauce, apple cider, apple cobbler, and any other random apple pastries you can think of will do.
Whatever you do this month just make sure there's an apple involved somewhere.
Wow I can't believe there's actually a month for this .. how exciting.
Okay I'm just kidding.. but seriously October is the National Sarcastic Month.
I think this is such an important month because what kind of world would we live in if we didn't get to use sarcasm..
And for all those who don't know ....
Sarcasm: (noun)
The use of irony to mock or convey contempt.
One good example of this would be :
Comic Book Guy
Of course there can be good things and bad things to this ..
The good aspects are that we can get a kick out of whoever we're doing the sarcasm to !
The bad aspects are that it sucks when it happens to yourself. =[
But other than that I hope you have a very sarcastic month !
October is Adopt-A-Dog Month..
Thousands of dogs each year are put to sleep because of the overflow in the pounds. So this month is dedicated to seeing that this doesn't happen.
I say why not !? Dogs are adorable and can add happiness to your life and your home. They can help you stay fit, keep you safe at night, play with your children, and even make you become more sociable. =]
And there's so many different kinds of dogs out there that are oh so cute.. so why not go out and adopt a dog this month? Who knows.. it could make a difference in your life..
See ? Now who can resist that ?
Today's the day you evaluate your life !!
Created by Wellcat.com:
To encourage everyone to check and see if they’re really headed where they want to be.
Whether you think about the past, present or future.. today you consider everything you've done, everything your doing, and everything you will do. Is your life going in the direction you wanted it to? If not, change it! If something in your life doesn't feel right or it's not going where you wanted it to then do something different.
Some things to consider when evaluating are your mind, body, spirit, friends, family, love life, and finance. Think of those as like a rubric for reconsidering your life. One way you can get started on this is by using either quiz one or two.
Otherwise, if you evaluate your life and find out that it's everything you've ever wanted ... congratulations ! You've accomplished the task for Evaluate Your Life Day!
All the other people reconsidering ... well you picked a good day to start.
Happy Evaluating !
