http://www.famousbirthdays.com/march1.htmlFruit Compote Day Fruit compotes can be made with either fresh fruits or with dried, reconstituted fruit. A very grown-up way to re-hydrate those apricots or apple slices is to soak them in cider, or even Champagne, before adding them to a mix of summer berries. Compotes can be spiced up, as well. Add a few cloves and some cinnamon to a simmering pot of plums, apples and blackberries for a warming winter treat. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/fruit-compote-day/
Pig Day The Pig is a wholly underrated animal, so this special day was created in 1972 to attempt to elevate awareness of the intellectual prowess, adaptability and general tastiness of the humble Pig. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/pig-day/
Plan a Solo Vacation Day is a celebration designed for those people who like to view the world alone. Rather than being constrained by the demands and foibles of friends and family, people like this prefer the intensity of an individual adventure. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/plan-a-solo-vacation-day/
World Compliment Day Compliment Day is billed as the most positive day in the world. Its hard to argue, what with all those compliments being passed around. There is an art to it, though. A true compliment must be genuine, or the receiver will see through it. As importantly, the receiver must accept the compliment with a heartfelt Thank you!. Its no good being self-effacing; youll wring all the positivity out of the situation, making for a dull Compliment Day. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/world-compliment-day/

There, compliment and pig in one post.
Friend of mine had a watch-pig. Said they are much smarter than dogs, just as faithful, just as alert, and a lot tougher. Well, which would you rather face: 80 pounds of charging dog, or 400 pounds of charging pig?
