Daily Holidays - October 28

[Sherman A1]

National Chocolate Day National Chocolate Day is observed annually on October 28. While there are many specific chocolate related holidays throughout the year, National Chocolate Day celebrates all things chocolate. As America’s favorite flavor, chocolate is well deserving of it’s own day of honor and celebration. ( Some sources designate July 7 or December 28 as “Chocolate Day” or “International Chocolate Day”) http://nationaldaycalendar.com/latest-posts/

Plush Animal Lovers Day is a day of celebration that is held every year to show your favourite stuffed toy some extra special love and appreciation. There’s an urban legend that says that the Teddy Bear, one of the worlds most popular plush animal pets, was invented when American President Theodore Roosevelt saw a baby bear on a hunting trip, and refused to shoot it., https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/plush-animal-lovers-day/

Animation Day Animation is everywhere these days, and most of us have been raised on it. Starting with our Saturday Morning Cartoons that we enjoyed with our sugary bowl of cereal, straight through to our favorite video games and movies of today, our view of the world has often been shaped by this amazing art form. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/animation-day/

9. I like Crackle

Is that Nestle?

[pinboy3niner]

10. I don't know about that

But many of us here are old enough to remember the old Nestle's Quik Farfel commercials and the jingle that is forever seared--seared!--into our memories.

14. It's a shame they're such asses about water.

You know, I kind of miss the old days, when a chocolate company was just a chocolate company, and not a slave-driving monolith of ruthless commodity thieves.
