Did you know that today is Bake Cookies Day?! It comes at the most opportune time and serves as a reminder to get that holiday baking done! Unfortunately for us, we won’t be making any this year – not with the man being a type 2 diabetic now, and me just not NEEDING to eat […]
It hasn’t been but a few scant years since the smartphone first made an appearance in our technologically advancing world, and now you see them everywhere. One of the few things I like about my own smartphone is the Maps app. If it weren’t for that particular app, and not having a landline anymore, I […]
Happy Wednesday – and Happy National Candy Corn Day! I just LOVE candy corn! It’s my favorite Halloween treat, especially when you mix it up with salted peanuts. Mmmmmmm! You just can’t beat that sweet & salty taste! Candy corn was invented by George Renninger in the 1880s in Philadelphia, PA. It’s been around for […]
It’s “Take Your Teddy Bear to Work” day today, and that got me wondering… how many adults still have teddy bears? A teddy bear is usually one of the first gifts given to newborns. An attachment is formed and as they get older and more attached, and there is major drama when the teddy gets […]
Hey, it’s a Wacky Wednesday here at PBP! Did you know it’s Crackers over the Keyboard Day? Yes, that’s a thing 😛 Lol, TODAY ONLY you can snack over the keys without any guilt. However, the occasional sticky key may still be a problem. That’s seriously annoying from what I’ve heard. Of course, I would […]

In coming up with this event, we realized not everyone knew what an actual party popper is. They are fun little party favors that ‘shoot’ confetti: You can find them at Party City, Walmart, […]
… but then I turned myself around. HA It’s Tell an Old Joke day… one of the funniest (and punniest) days of the year. My husband thinks he’s a comedian – he’s very… punny… always making jokes and playing off words. There are a LOT of “dad jokes” in his arsenal that make the kids […]
This is an actual thing, and the UN uses it to encourage environmental awareness & action… you guess it… world wide. Each year there is a different theme and a different host country. This year’s theme is Air Pollution, hosted by China. You can check out the website here. I poked around the site quite […]
“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” ― Plato. I love music, pretty much all music, and have from day 1. I used to be able to play a little piano (besides Chopsticks, thankyouverymuch), read sheet music, sang in a church choir… so […]
Believe it or not, today is Pig in a Blanket Day! When I was a kid, pigs in blankets was my favorite, and Mom liked them because they are super simple to make, and she didn’t have to fight us to eat them, lol. There are several variations on the recipe, but most use just […]
