Daily Holidays - June 17

Eat All Your Vegetables Day They come in every color of the rainbow, almost every believable shape and size, and the flavors they bring to the table are absolutely astounding. Whether you’re just talking about the staple vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and onions that we all get from the store, or the diverse range of vegetables that come from around the world like Bok Choy and watercress, we’ve all been eating them our whole lives. Eat Your Vegetables Day is dedicated to getting people eating their veggies, and also in spreading awareness of their diversity and necessity in a healthy diet. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/eat-your-vegetables-day/

National Apple Strudel Day According to some people, every day should be ‘apfelstrudel’ day, to give it its proper Austrian name. A dish that dates back to 1696, Apple strudel consists of a centre of apple, cinnamon and raisins, wrapped in crispy layers of pastry, that puff up in the oven; served with a dusting of icing sugar and a dollop of thick cream, comfort food at its finest. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/apple-strudel-day/

Flip Flop Day If you’re tired of keeping your feet in stuffy shoes and need an excuse to expose those toes, Flip-Flop Day may just be the answer. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/flip-flop-day/

They should not be worn in public except at a beach or pool.
But especially not at a bar.
