Calendar of Events

2010 Chase's Calendar of Events has the most interesting information. For my family and friends back in Connecticut, this one is for you:

Hula in the Coola Day ~ February 1st is "A day for those longing to escape the winter doldrums to laugh at the cold with a luau party. Put away your winter coats, get out your shorts and flip-flops, play limbo and say 'Aloha.' "

If you are lucky enough to have already escaped the cold, to say, Florida, for the next 28 days (and longer I'm sure!) you can enjoy Florida Strawberry Month. Yum!

And, no matter where you live you can celebrate Bake for Family Fun Month. The Home Baking Association dedicates the entire month to "the great taste, good nutrition, economy and family fun of traditional home baking." http://www.homebaking.org/.

Wouldn't it be great if everyone working in a service industry put this into practice ~ National Laugh-Friendly Month. The sponsors of this one encourages businesses and individuals to promote exceptional customer service with smiles, humor and laughter.

Speaking of laughter, February 8th is Laugh and Get Rich Day. The promoter of this day believes that people who laugh are more effective, tend to remember things better, and that laughter helps to lower the turnover rate.

Joel Goodman: Seven days without laughter makes one weak.

Well, it looks like this month is all about eating and laughing. Sounds good to me!
