Fudge Day

Got a sweet tooth? Indulge yourself in this chocolate deliciousness. The concept for fudge first started in the late 17th century with a candy called Scots Tablet, which was a slightly harder consistency than American fudge and did not have chocolate in it. Today, fudge can be found in a wide array of flavors and variations including marshmallow, nuts, caramel, and peanut butter. Celebrate Fudge Day by enjoying your favorite types of fudge with your friends and family. But don't be surprised if they don't want to share!
Today is also Fresh Veggies Day

Today's Tip:

Use Earrings as Pushpins
Face it: That long-lost earring is probably gallivanting with a wayward sock in Ye Olde Land of Misplaced Items. (What a stud!) Let its lonely, abandoned mate rebound as a pretty thumbtack on a bulletin board.
