March 20 - Grab Bag

March 20th is...

Absolutely Incredible Kid Day
Do you know an absolutely incredible kid? If so, let them know how great they are. Write them a letter. Encourage them in their absolutely incredible-ness, and let them know you care about them and want them to succeed.

National Agriculture Day
My suggestion for celebrating this day would be to find out when and where your nearest farmer's market is. Support the local guys. If you are a foodie at all, you will soon become addicted to shopping this way. Thank the local farmers while you are there.

Great American Meat Out Day
From meatout.org:

The purpose is to expose the public to the joys and benefits of a plant-based diet, while promoting the availability and selection of meat and dairy alternatives in mainstream grocery stores, restaurants, and catering operations.

Proposal Day
While I believe this holiday refers to marriage proposals, those of you already married (or not inclined to become so) can use this day to propose...a meat-free meal. Or whatever.

Snowman Burning Day
Also known as the first day of Spring, some people celebrate by burning snowmen. I know, I know - "But snowmen are made of snow. How can they burn?" They make snowman effigies out of newspaper or something and burn those. The purpose: why, to celebrate Spring's arrival, of course. I can't make this stuff up, people!

Some people hold that rising smoke rising from the fire is supposed to ward off blizzards and usher in spring-like weather.

Kids, don't try this at home!
