"Each year on November 28th, people across the United States enjoy National French Toast Day. Also known as eggy bread or omelet bread, it makes a great breakfast for guests or part of a brunch. Home cooks and professionals alike whip up a few personal favorites when it comes to french toast recipes. The base consists of eggs and milk whisked together. Bread is dipped into the mixture and fried until golden. Many people also add some sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon to the base. The flavor of French toast can be brightened with a squeeze of a fresh orange or stuffed with sauteed apples and cinnamon. Make French toast kid-friendly by cutting it into sticks. Then dip the sticks into syrup. Substitute sugary syrup with a fruit puree and fresh fruit pieces. Nuts and seeds add crunch to this delicious breakfast fare, and donโt forget the whipped cream! Just a dollop goes a long way."
My notes: I love french toast but I can't do wheat too well so haven't had it in a very long time.

YUM. French Toast is one of my favorite foods of all time. I especially love it topped with condensed milk and fresh berries.

"Chanukah also spelled Hanukkah and known as the Festival of Lights, is an eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the re-dedication of the Holy Temple (the Second Temple) in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt of the 2nd century BCE. Hanukkah is observed for eight nights and days. According to the Hebrew calendar, it starts on the 25th day of Kislev, which may occur from late November to late December in the Gregorian calendar.
Did you know these facts? Hanukkah is less religiously significant than other Jewish holidays. The menorah holds nine candles. In the center stands the shamus or servant. The shamus lights the eight other Hanukkah candles. The Hanukkah candles are strictly for pleasure. They are not to be used for any useful or productive purpose. The shamus is available, so the Hanukkah candles are not accidentally used to light a fire in the fireplace or for another useful purpose. Gift-giving is not traditionally a part of the Hanukkah holiday. Playing dreidel is a gambling game popular during the Hanukkah holiday. Fried foods are traditional during the holiday, representing the oil used to light the lamps."
My notes: Even tho my forum is secular in nature, I have no problem with acknowledging religious holidays. This gives a bit of the interesting facts.

"National Brand Day takes place annually on the fourth Monday in November and this year, it falls on November 28. It reminds entrepreneurs to celebrate their brands and to express gratitude and appreciation for being able to have a brand. Business owners pour a lot of their time, ideas, skills, and other resources into creating brands. It often takes many years for a brand to become fully established and turn into a household name. It is only fitting then that we have a day dedicated to recognizing the hard work that brand owners channel into their ventures. National Brand Day was created in November 2020 by Brand Camp U.S.A."
My notes: Do you have a favorite brand out there? I have a few I like for various needs.

"Every year on November 28th, Red Planet Day commemorates the launch of Spacecraft Mariner 4. Itโs also a day to learn more about Mars, which is referred to as the red planet. After 3 previous attempts, Spacecraft Mariner 4 became the first successful flyby of Mars. The spacecraft was launched on November 28, 1964, and reached Mars on July 14, 1965. The successful mission produced 22 pictures of the Martian surface. These pictures were the first-ever close-up photos to come from deep space. This mission, along with several others that occurred afterward, has helped us learn much about the red planet."
My notes: I love learning about space & astronomy. I just hope that this can be used to benefit us.
