National Old Stuff Day!

Today is National Old Stuff Day!

“One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”

Let us celebrate the things that have been around for awhile.

My newly favorited magazine and blog Mental Floss chimes in on today’s holiday: “Sorry hoarders, this holiday is not about celebrating how much old stuff you have. Instead, National Old Stuff Day is about taking a moment to recognize the same old stuff you do every day, and think about how you can break old routines. Seize the day, because tomorrow’s just more of the same old, same old.”

Do you have anything old in your life that you need to re-visit or maybe even get rid of?

Head over to our page and let us know below this post.

Sugar Fluff: National Cotton Candy Day!

Candy

Get it...

Growing up, I always loved cotton candy.  I even received a cotton candy machine as a present one year.

However, I’m a little confused why cotton candy is attributed to a day in December.

Punchbowl.com offers some other interesting things about cotton candy and this day: “Did you know that cotton candy was originally called ‘fairy floss?’ It was renamed in 1920. Today in Greece, Israel, and India, it is often referred to as ‘old woman’s hair!'”

So, while it might not make sense… some of the best things in the world do not make sense.

In the word’s of Paula Abdul – “Cuz opposites attract… and you know…”
