February is the shortest month, but it still has plenty of
holidays. We watched the Bill Murray/ Andie MacDowell February second. We ignored
the big game Sunday. Instead, we had a lunar new year feast. Chinese celebrate the
new year for 15 or 16 days. We spent about an hour and a half. We skipped
Shrove Tuesday. The fact that we’re not giving ANYTHING up for Lent kind of steals
the thunder from Mardi Gras. We exchanged small non-traditional gifts on
Valentine’s Day. John got me a tiny succulent plant in a pot shaped like a
triceratops. I love it. The month’s half over, but there are still holidays
worth considering. Monday is President’s Day, but it’s also National Chocolate
Mint Day. Tuesday is Cherry Pie Day, Thursday is National Chili Day, and next
Saturday is National Tortilla Chip Day. The 26th is National Pistachio Day.
That should be enough to keep me busy until March!
