"March 16th recognizes National Freedom of Information Day annually during Sunshine Week. It also commemorates the birthday of President James Madison. Madison earned the name the Father of the Constitution and was the foremost advocate for openness in government. Additionally, historians hail Madison as instrumental in drafting the United States Constitution and the leading advocate and author of the Bill of Rights. Madison held individual rights and freedom of information in high importance. On March 16, 1751, James Madison, Jr. was born in Port Conway, Virginia. Madison died on June 28, 1836, on his Montpelier Estate. The people elected James Madison as the 4th President of the United States of America (1809-1817). In 1966, Congress passed the Freedom of Information Act into law."
My notes: Let's not forget what our country, USA, stands for.

"National Curl Crush Day on March 16th empowers everyone to be their own curl crush by loving and showing off their natural, gorgeous curls. We’ve all done it, flipped through a magazine or scrolled through social media, and secretly wished our hair was different. In fact, 75% have wished for a different texture and 82% of women admit to curl envy. That’s why the time is now to flip the script and start crushing on your own curls. National Curl Crush Day on March 16th is a day that’s all about you and every single one of your bouncy, zigzagged curls and coils."
My notes: All races can have curly hair. They can range from kinky coily to wavy. I have curly/wavy hair. What do you have?

Curly hair is not bad. I know a lot of people with curly hair, and they look great too.

"On March 16th, National Artichoke Hearts Day offers a tasty option to add flavor to any dish. According to the California Artichoke Advisory Board, artichokes are a good source of antioxidants, vitamin C, folate, and magnesium. The antioxidants in artichokes are very good for your liver and help promote healthy skin. Artichokes are also high in fiber, calcium, and protein while low in calories. These reasons, plus being fat-free and cholesterol-free, make artichokes a healthy and delicious food to celebrate!"
My notes: I cannot remember if I had artichokes are not. They look like a cactus in a way. Do you like them? How do you prepare them?

I never really saw the obsession because it seemed like so much work for so little food.

I tried them. Didn’t care for them. Don’t see the attraction.
