Plan A Solo Vacation Day

Plan a Solo Vacation Day is a celebration designed for those people who like to view the world alone. Rather than being constrained by the demands and foibles of friends and family, people like this prefer the intensity of an individual adventure.

The day itself varies in actual date, but there is no doubt about the seriousness of its purpose. Solo travellers are rarely highlighted by travel companies, who prefer to focus their marketing on families, couples and groups.

The solo traveller is a special breed, though. More spontaneous than many travellers, he or she does not like to have their travel agenda shaped by others.

While formally celebrating the day at a social occasion would defeat the object, the best way to mark Plan a Solo Vacation Day is to take a trip. Simply by planning to hit the road alone, anyone can become a part of this international celebration.

Horse Protection Day

Horse Protection Day was created by Colleen Paige to educate people regarding the welfare of horses.

Ideas for Horse Protection Day can range from fostering, adopting, or sponsoring a horse that’s in desperate need of some love and care, to setting up a stall to bring attention to the issue of horse welfare.

Further ideas for Horse Protection Day can include organising an adoption event in your town or city, with the help of a local animal charity, as well as organising an event to get food to horses that desperately need it in your area.

Local riding stables should also be made aware of Horse Protection Day, while you could spend the day looking after the horse of a neighbour or friend.

Humorous ways of drawing attention to the day can include dressing up as a horse and collecting for a horse welfare charity and organising a horse-themed party.

Fruit Compote Day

Often overlooked as baby food, compotes can be surprisingly grown-up and sophisticated if they’re prepared in the right way. It’s time to take these dishes out of the nursery by celebrating Fruit Compote Day! Compote is the French word for mixture, and almost any fruit can be used, except for strawberries, as they don’t cook well.

Fruit compotes can be made with either fresh fruits or with dried, reconstituted fruit. A very grown-up way to re-hydrate those apricots or apple slices is to soak them in cider, or even Champagne, before adding them to a mix of summer berries. Compotes can be spiced up, as well. Add a few cloves and some cinnamon to a simmering pot of plums, apples and blackberries for a warming winter treat.

To really add an air of sophistication, finely shred some mint leaves and sprinkle them over the compote to add colour and a fresh counterpoint to all that fruitiness.
