National Penuche Fudge Day Even if you are on a strict weight watch and working hard towards that beach body, make sure your cheat day falls on Penuche Fudge Day. The sweet light-brown concoction will make it worth your while! Penuche is a flavor native to New England, but its caramel-like goodness has earned the treat nationwide respect so much so that it got its own day in the calendar!Penuche stands apart from its fudge relatives mainly because it is based on brown rather than white sugar. This gives it its characteristic color and texture and makes it lighter than classic fudges. Confectioners often add other ingredients to penuche, most famously pecans, walnuts, or raisins, in order to enhance its texture and taste. Feel free to whip up a batch yourself if you cannot find a local bakery which dispenses the golden brown treat and celebrate Penuche Fudge Day with a yummy bite! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/penuche-fudge-day/
Rat-catchers Day National Rat Catchers Day, which is annually observed on July 22, is a holiday commemorating the famous Pied Piper of Hamelin as well as a day to say Thank You to all present day exterminators.
According to the folktale, residents of the German town of Hamelin, hired a strangely dressed man to rid their village of rats by playing his flute. Upon finishing the task, the townsfolk refused to pay so the Pied Piper returned, again played his flute while the children followed him and he then disappeared with them all. http://nationaldaycalendar.com/latest-posts/
National Hammock Day Nothing sounds quite as relaxing as kicking back and relaxing in a hammock and theres no better way to celebrate Hammock Day! Find two sturdy, conveniently located trees (or improvise and dont limit yourself to the outdoors), string up a comfy bed and relax! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/hammock-day/
