It is celebrated each year on the first
Friday in October. Did you notice smile day is always celebrated
on a Happy Friday. Do it! Smile. You will make yourself and all
around you happier.
Also October 5 is Rocky
Mountain Oyster Day (bull testicles) and Apple Betty Day (also
known as apple pan dowdy and apple crisp). Amarillo, Texas, Vinita,
Oklahoma, and other cities annually claim to have the
World’s Largest Calf Fry Cook-Off, where cooks compete in the
art of frying bull testicles. A busy day to make us all smile
and be glad we are not bulls.
Tomorrow, October 6 is
German American Day. It commemorates the founding of Germantown,
Pa. in 1683. The holiday celebrates America's largest ethnic
group, with 50 million people of German heritage.
