There before you is the ultimate in birthday confections, a rich and luxurious chocolate cake with rich strawberry filling, you know it’s going to be a good day. Maybe you’re just coming into work, and some thoughtful soul has laid out a tray of chocolate cupcakes, each with their own design and one waiting for your mouth to wrap lovingly around it and fade away on a cocoa fueled holiday. However you like your chocolate cake, Chocolate Cake Day gives you an excuse to indulge as deeply as you’d like!

TODAY IS SPOUSE’S DAY

Spouse’s Day is a day to celebrate your spouse, better half, or significant other. The unofficial holiday encourages people to let their spouses know how much they are loved, respected, and appreciated.

While the term spouse is traditionally used to refer to individual bound by law through marriage, these days it can be used to refer to people who may be in a common-law marriage, domestic partnership, or civil union.

TODAY IS OPPOSITE DAY

Opposite Day is the worst day for not saying anything to the people far away from you. You can’t have fun today, as nothing is allowed and nobody wants to have fun with you. Of course, on Opposite day, all of that means the opposite! It’s the best day of talking to the people close to you, having fun is the absolute most important thing you can do, and everyone is going to want in on it! Opposite Day may be infuriating for some, but it can be the best (worst?) fun you’ll have all year!

DAYTIME WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION WILL CONTINUE ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY - 12:00 TO 17:00

The measure is being carried out to replenish the levels at the Newton Reservoirs in order to uphold supply during the week.

TODAY IS PEANUT BUTTER DAY

Who doesn’t love peanut butter? So let’s celebrate Peanut Butter Day. This auspicious occasion was created many years ago, to allow peanut butter lovers to celebrate the creation of this wonderful food.

Peanut butter can be eaten and used in many different recipes. I see nothing wrong in sitting down and indulging in a jar of the creamy or crunchy delight with a spoon. What more do you need?

Families and friends can celebrate Peanut Butter Day by getting together and creating delicious recipes containing peanut butter, from cookies and cakes to sautes and sauces. These can of course be consumed at home, or some prefer to make a day of it and go on a picnic style outing. There are many individuals that eat nothing but peanut butter on Peanut Butter Day.

There are even schools that will only serve peanut butter sandwiches to their students on this festive day. What better sandwich is there in the world?

TODAY IS HANDWRITING DAY

Practicing your handwriting is important now more than ever, especially in a world where it is so rarely used as a form of communication. This day encourages you to put pen to paper, and show off your skills.

There is no official reason to celebrate Handwriting Day, but it is there so that people can appreciate the art of handwriting. Getting the chance to be your own individual, and having a day where you can sit back and appreciate the art of handwriting is what this day is all about. In a generation of computers and electronics, it is important not to forget the importance of handwriting and how much we would be relying on this form of communication should technology cease to work!

How To Celebrate Handwriting Day
There are a number of things that you can do in order to celebrate Handwriting Day. One of the first things that you can do is think about all of the important documents in the world that have been handwritten. For example, you could think of the Declaration of Independence, poems, the Bill of Rights, wedding vows, and so many more.
