The Best Kind Of Anything



Today is National Cheesecake Day! Cheesecake is quite possibly the best kind of cake. It's smooth, rich, and filling. It also comes in just a bunch of different flavors, so there is absolutely no way you can get tired of it. I would say that there's no wrong way to eat it, but there actually is. If your cheesecake has actual cake in it (I'm looking at you, red velvet cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory), then it's wrong. Cheesecake is meant to be smooth and uninterrupted by some fluffy filler cake. I don't mean any offense to Cheesecake Factory. Their White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle is the best cheesecake they have in my opinion. Buuuuuuut, my workplace has been making these awesome mini-cheesecakes in such awesome flavours like Cookies n' Cream that have become my main source of cheesecake nutrition because they are so very good.

You Cheddar Believe It!

Today is Cheese Sacrifice Purchase Day! I'm not quite sure I would qualify this as another food holiday. From what very little is available to me that deals with the meaning and history of today, I have more or less decided that the most prominent way to celebrate today is to go out and buy cheese for use in mouse traps. At least, that's what most people seem to be saying. I suppose it makes sense, since you purchase cheese only to sacrifice it in hopes of catching a mouse. I don't know if sacrifice is the best word, though... but I'm only a celebrator of days, not a namer of days.

Chunks of Joy




Today is National Milk Chocolate Day! Milk chocolate is perhaps, the most popular form of chocolate. It may be due to the fact that as young children, we can be given a Hershey's and have nothing explained to us. I remember when my mom first introduced me to dark chocolate and I didn't understand that it wasn't just a change of color. However, today isn't about dark chocolate, it's about milk chocolate. Milk chocolate is by far the best kind, in my own correct opinion. It's good as a bar, as sprinkles, as syrup, as ice cream, and as pretty much anything that chocolate can be used for. So find a way to get some milk chocolate into your gut today (It should be a gut by now if you've been properly celebrating all these food holidays... unless you celebrated yesterday in a hardcore style beyond my comprehension). Once you've gotten your chocolate, you can cross today off the list, too! If you have a list... I do... I don't cross them off though. ... Do whatever it is you do after you celebrate a holiday.
