On This Day

National Talk Like Shakespeare Day! Today in 1564, William Shakespeare died. This honors his death and all his contributions to literature. Shakespeare is one of the most celebrated authors of plays. As you talk today, remember the literature readings you went through in school.

National Picnic Day! The weather will be perfect for this. The sun has dried the ground. Grab a basket and pack a lunch. Gather you family and go to your yard or a local park. Enjoy a meal with the beauty of Spring.

National Take a Chance Day! Today you are encouraged to step outside your comfort zone. Go after what you always wanted and give it your all.

National Cherry Cheesecake Day! Cheesecakes are either cooked or chilled. The main ingredient is usually cream cheese or a mixture of cheeses. The crust is made with crushed cookies or Graham crackers. Today top it with cherries and devour!

National Lost Dog Awareness Day! Today, not only do we bring attention to the lost dogs that go missing, but also to those that have been found in rescues and shelters. If you see a dog wandering, try to find its owner. It is the smallest thing that can make the biggest difference.

Word of the Day: Origami is the Japanese art of folding paper into shapes to look like birds, beauties of nature, animals, ornaments, etc.

Quote of the Day: A warm smile is the universal act of kindness. -William Arthur Ward
