International Frugal Fun Day

When : First Saturday in October

Frugal Fun Day is today. If you dig deeply, you will find resources that describe this day as ""International"" Frugal Fun Day, and ""National"" Frugal Fun Day. However, we found no documentation supporting the International or National tags. We did find plenty of reference to the intent of this day.... to have fun ""on the cheap"".

Frugal Fun Day is a day to enjoy fun activities that are free (or very inexpensive). If you use your imagination, the ideas are endless. Go on a bike or walking hike. The Fall leaves are on display. Have a picnic in the park, or your back yard. Invite some friends or neighbors over for a garage party and dance. Go fly a kite. Pull out the those old board games or puzzles that you have stored in the basement. Play cards with some friends.

Here's wishing you a very Happy Frugal Fun Day.

National Spongecake Day

National Spongecake Day, celebrated on August 23rd, honors one of the most versatile and beloved cakes in culinary history.

Spongecake's unique structure comes from whipped eggs or egg whites, which create tiny air bubbles that expand during baking, resulting in its characteristic sponge-like consistency. On this day, baking enthusiasts and dessert lovers alike celebrate by creating their own spongecakes, trying different variations from around the world, or simply enjoying a slice of this timeless treat. Whether it's a classic Victoria Sponge, a Japanese Castella, or an elaborately decorated layer cake, National Spongecake Day is the perfect excuse to indulge in this light and fluffy delight.
