Calendar highlights

Well, here we are in December, and I bet you thought you knew all of the December holidays - Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, Kwanza and Hanukkah.  But here are some you may want to add to you celebration list.  For example, today is 'International Ninja Day.'  Since I don't know any Ninjas (international or otherwise) this one doesn't interest me too much, actually not at all.  However, December 13 (in addition to being St. Lucy's day - see last Sunday's blog) is 'Hot Cocoa Day.'  Now there's a day I can warm up to.  But that's not all.  December 16 is 'Chocolate Covered Anything Day.'  Aren't you glad it's December?
