On This Day

National Infertility Survival Day! Celebrated annually before Mother’s Day, to raise awareness of infertility raised issues. Beverly Barna, author of Infertility Sucks! Keeping it All Together When Sperm and Egg Stubbornly Remain Apart, created this in 2004.

National Melanoma Day! Today is celebrated to raise awareness about melanoma. Melanoma is a type of skin cancer, in which cells inside of moles become malignant and aggressively spread rapidly to other areas of the body.

National Beverage Day! Beverages have so many varieties. From cold to hot, iced to blended and shaken, with or without alcohol, so today enjoy a mixture of beverages!

National Crepe Suzette Day! Crepe Suzette is a thin French dessert pancake with a brandy and citrus sauce. It is usually set aflame when served.
