Lamb Paste

Today is Paste-Up Day! This celebration is aimed at anyone who works in industries like newspaper, magazines, or anything that involves typeset and illustration. I used to have a subscription to Nintendo Power when I was younger, and loved it because it was all that I needed to know without me having to search the internet for each individual article. I do NOT want to see newspapers and magazines be 'outdated' by the internet, which is one of their main fears. So go do them a favour and purchase some hard copies of your favourite paper or magazine, and maybe even think about getting a subscription.

Today is also National Roast Leg of Lamb Day! Now, I learned last year in Wales that lamb is delicious. When I saw this holiday coming up, I got pretty excited because it gives me an excuse to both have it again, and to try making it on my own. If there were a restaurant that I knew served lamb, I would be going today, to be quite honest, so instead I'm settling for making it on my own. I've already found mint sauce, which is what they gave us as a delicious, yet optional addition in Wales, so in my beginner-cook mind, I'm already half-way there.

Today is Beverage Day! Over the year, we've seen a LOT of food holidays, but not very many days dedicated to any particular drink. Today is just vague enough to allow everyone to include themselves, too. Whether you like Coke from a can, Iced Tea in a cool glass, or a glass bottle of J2O because that's one of the best bottled beverages in existence but they only sell them in the UK and you are having withdrawals... *ahem*... then you can celebrate this holiday. I'll most likely be celebrating with water, juice, and tea (iced peach tea in the day and hot chamomile at night) because I'm trying to not drink coke as often as I did when i was younger. I could power through a case of coke in 1 or 2 days. Which isn't good for an 8 year old. So, enjoy your favourite beverage today!

Today is National Hoagie Day!  A 'hoagie' is a term for a large sandwich (usually a sub from what i've seen) that is usually used in Philly. That is what google tells me about the term, anyway. I already knew there were a lot of names for sub sandwiches like grinders, hoagies, and i've even heard train-wreck once? But that guy was weird. However, since today is "Hoagie" day and not "Sub" Day (Which we already had btw), I think I'll go purchase and subsequently eat a Philly Cheesesteak.
