Happy Sweetest's Day Er'one! Ok, is this only a Michigan holiday???
Think: Valentines Day, but in October. Anywhoo, I bought my lovely wife a dozen pink roses (my 5 yr old daughter picked them out) and am treating her to any steakhouse she chooses. Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

Origins and Facts About Sweetest Day
Observed the 3rd Saturday in the month of October, Sweetest Day observance originated in Cleveland in 1922. Herbert Birch Kingston, a philanthropist and candy company employee wanted to bring happiness into the lives of orphans, shut-ins and others who were forgotten. With the help of friends, he began to distribute candy and small gifts to the underprivileged. On the first Sweetest Day, movie star Ann Pennington presented 2,200 Cleveland newspaper boys with boxes of candy to express gratitude for their service to the public. Another popular movie star, Theda Bara, distributed 10,000 boxes of candy to people in Cleveland hospitals and also gave candy to all who came to watch her film in a local theater. Primarily a regional observance celebrated in the Great Lakes region and the Northeast, Sweetest Day is gradually spreading to other areas of the country. People tend to take the Sweetest Day tradition with them when they move. Ohio is the top state for Sweetest Day sales, followed by Michigan and Illinois. Texas, California and Florida are among the top 10 states in sales. Over the years, Sweetest Day has evolved into a time to express romantic love and also to show appreciation to friends. http://www.theromantic.co...estday.htm | |

I always celebrate Sweetest Day. I made brownies and gave the mailperson one. I had fun scarfing down homemade brownies from scratch. Pass some milk. It was as close as I could get to something chocolate. Smile Sometime anytime now!!! And no there wasn't any drugs in the brownies.
Happy Sweetest Day you all. sorry if that was over your head...jump up and try to catch the point next time. | |
