National Two Different Colored Shoes Day

Three hundred sixty four days a year, people wear matching shoes because it is considered socially acceptable that your footwear match. But not today, it's National Two Different Colored Shoes Day!

This day was founded by Dr. Arlene Kaiser as a way to recognize and celebrate uniqueness. Pay tribute today to the diversity of humanity by wearing two different colored shoes to show your willingness to be different and take a risk. It can be as simple as wearing a black shoe and a brown shoe or as outrageous as wearing a flip flop and a boot! However you decide to express yourself today, do so with pride!

Today is also National Raspberry Tart Day

May is National Bike Month & National Strawberry Month & National Hamburger Month

- Katharine Hepburn


QUICK TIP:

Chill Out

To de-grime nonstick cookware, put the pan in the freezer for at least 30 minutes after it has cooled; the burned-on mess should come off easily.
