August 9
Book Lovers’ Day
Book Lovers Day is a great day to celebrate. Just grab an interesting book, find a quiet, cozy place, and crack open the cover. Celebrating Book Lovers Day in August is pleasurable on the deck, under a shady tree, poolside, or in a cozy hammock. If you fall asleep while reading, that’s okay. It’s all part of the relaxing benefits of being a book lover.
August 10
Lazy Day Celebration
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer! Lazy Day is your chance to goof off, and definitely not work. And, it definitely comes at a good time. Hot, muggy weather makes it easy to kick back and be lazy for a day. If summer chores are not done by now, they can just wait one more day. It is best spent on a hammock, along with your favorite summer beverage.
August 9-14
Perseid Meteor Shower
The annual Perseid Meteor Shower is one of he brightest, numerous and long lasting of all the meteor showers. Best of all, it occurs each year in August, at a time when the viewing weather is warm, most days and nights are cloudless. The number of
meteors you see, is dependent upon how dark of a location you watch from, and the number of expected meteors. This number can vary significantly from just a few to hundred per hour. On a good, moonless night, 60 - 100 meteors per hour are likely.
August 12
National Middle Child Day
It is very fair and fitting that we celebrate, and place into the limelight, the middle child today. Go out and enjoy this day to the fullest. Tell the world about it. Be a little outspoken, and let the world know how great it is to be the middle child. You truly are a wonderful, talented, and special person!
August 15
Honeybee Awareness Day
Did you know that many bees have to travel 55,000 miles to produce just one pound of honey? To get that pound of honey, those bees need to
gather nectar from two million flowers. A single bee will gather just a 1/2 teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. After all of this hard work, honey bees deserve this special day of recognition.
August 16
Tell-a-Joke Day
No doubt about it; today will be a fun-filled day with lots of laughter! To fully participate and enjoy this day, just tell some jokes. You can do it in person, or pass along a few humorous emails. That’s easy enough to do. The more jokes you tell, the more fun this day will be. We also encourage you to listen to many jokes today. Everybody is getting into the
act, and in order to tell a joke, someone has to be present to listen to the joke.
August 29 International Day of Bacon
Let’s start the day with bacon and eggs. Go ahead, take a couple extra strips. For lunch, its definitely a BLT or Turkey Club with Bacon sandwich. And, don’t forget a cup of potato and bacon soup. Dinner can be a wide range of entrees! Everything from a bacon cheeseburger to a bacon wrapped steak is fair game. Your salad should be topped with bacon bits, as well as your loaded baked potato. There, that’s an international day of bacon well celebrated.
