National Days

It is horrifying when one learns the depth of one's ignorance. Today thanks to the fabulous reporting of the Wall Street Journal I found out that it was National Fried Chicken Day.

Do you have any idea how much I love fried chicken and I grieve at missing the opportunity to have an excuse to eat it?

Tomorrow, Thursday is evidently National Father Daughter Take A Walk Day. Since I have a little bit of notice I've told Daughters #1, 2 & 3 to meet me at my trail head of choice tomorrow morning. I'm confident they are jetting across oceans and continents to not disappoint me tomorrow.

Then on Friday is National Chocolate and Almonds Day. Did you know that chocolate and almonds is probably my most favorite sweet combination ever? My all time first choice ice cream sundae is a Hot Fudge Sunday with Chocolate Almond Ice Cream and Extra Almonds on the top.

As Wife and I rarely celebrate anything on time we've decided to have fried chicken for dinner on Friday with chocolate and almonds for dessert. Please feel free to join us in spirit.

I would be up for making some chocolate almond ice cream, but this vegetarian will leave the fried chicken to you. Would tempura squash be sufficiently close? I just picked the first squash from the garden.

It's important to celebrate holidays, so I'm sure you'll see your daughters tomorrow.

Oh man, sorry I am just reading this now! Sorry otherwise I'd totally be there. For sures.
