"Observed annually on May 4th, National Renewal Day provides an opportunity for new beginnings. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, renewal is defined as “the state of being made new, fresh, or strong again: the state of being renewed.” The day has been correctly placed in the spring when plants are sprouting. The day strives to reinvigorate us after a long winter. Whether we choose to refresh our souls or replace our old rugs with new, we are charged with setting to work polishing up our state of being. Where the house might need to be infused with a little fresh air, our friendships might need some reconnection to renew them. Has the romance gone stale? Add a spark and bring some new life to it. Has the diet seen better days? Find a little color to add to it, and you might find a little pep in your step to renew yourself. Whatever your approach to this day is, remain confident and National Renewal Day will be a success."
My notes: What are you going to Renew today? A nice reminder to be 'out with the old & in with the new'.

"On May 4th National Orange Juice Day recognizes America’s most popular breakfast drink. Orange juice holds a large margin over second-place apple juice, too. People have been waking up to a glass of orange juice for many years and enjoying the health benefits it gives them. One 8 ounce serving of orange juice has 124 mg of vitamin C and also supplies potassium, thiamine, and folate. That little bit of sunshine in the morning can add a boost to your day. Get your orange juice fresh squeezed, bottled or in concentrated form in the freezer section. You can also enjoy orange juice blends for delicious combinations."
My notes: I love OJ. We get the organic, pulp-free one. Quite tasty!

We go, buy orange, then use a juicer. I know many people who do that as well! Nothing like fresh squeezed juice

"National Candied Orange Peel Day is observed annually on May 4th. Candied Orange Peels are a boiled, sliced and sugared treat. Chefs and bakers like using them to add bright flavor to dishes as well as beautiful garnishes. Often used in holiday baking such as cookies and fruitcakes, they also add flavor to other foods as well. Add them to granola, tarts, and other pastries. You can also enjoy them as a snack on their own."
My notes: I guess, why not since today is also Orange Juice day lol I have never tried candied orange peel. Have any of you? Do you like it?

"May the Fourth be with you each year on National Star Wars Day. Or is it, "May the force be with you?" It all depends on whether you like using puns or not. Thousands of Star Wars enthusiasts celebrate this day each year with parties and celebrations around the nation. If you are a fan, then National Star Wars Day allows you to dress like your favorite character, say your favorite lines from the series and catch a movie or read a book." My notes: A day for Star Wars fans. Who do we have here that know of this day & are celebrating it? What are you doing? While I have watched the old Star Wars movies & they are a fascinating storyline, there's just too many of them to keep track. Members may like this similar thread: Star Wars
