goodbye/fun facts....national hot fudge sundae day...whether you were born in 1910 or 2010, chances are that you've got fond memories of hot fudge sundaes from your youth. There are many cities that claim to be the home of the hot fudge sundae, but they’ve all got one thing in common: they’re American cities....the classic recipe: a scoop or 2 of vanilla ice cream...Add hot fudge sauce. Top it with a dollop of whipped cream and some nuts (if you like).and a maraschino cherry.  but of course you can modify it to your liking....The most expensive sundae can also be found in the United States. If you are willing to pay $25,000, you can enjoy the world’s most expensive sundae in New York City at Serendipity 3....it is served in a goblet that is lined with edible gold, and it is infused with five grams of edible 23-karat gold.

goodbye/fun facts....National Drive-Thru Day celebrates the fact we can pick up and eat a meal without having to leave the comfort of our car. can you imagine having to get out of your to get your food?!?! Actually, the drive-thru format was created in the United States for banking services. when it comes to food...you may think of drive-thru and instantly think of McDonald’s. Well, you may be a little surprised to know that it was 1975 when they opened their first drive-thru. The first drive-thru is believed to have been at Red’s Giant Hamburg on Route 66 in Springfield, Missouri in 1947. In 1948 the original In-N Out Burger opened a drive-thru, which is now the longest surviving drive-thru in the U.S. by the mid 1970's the drive-thru became so popular that it started to influence car design. In 1983 the cupholder as we know started to appear in cars. today drive thru's are multi-lane...as most people prefer using a drive thru.

goodbye/fun facts....National Lemon Day. This tart fruit brings vibrant, citrus notes to salads, drinks, and even savory dishes.  Citron, the predecessor to lemons, were found in a Persian garden near Jerusalem said to be at least 2,500 years old and then made their way to Rome. Interestingly, lemons were never used in food or drink by the Romans during this early time period. It seems Romans instead used this citrus tree for decoration and the pleasant odour. It would take at least 400 years for the contemporary lemon to appear as an abundant tree. Today, lemons are found all over the world as part of our culinary creations and for medicinal uses.

goodbye/fun facts....spoonerism day. Both the word and the holiday are named for William Archibald Spooner —a prominent reverend and scholar. On July 22, 1844, this absent-minded professor was born and became famous for his tendency of mixing sounds. i.e. runny babbit instead of a bunny rabbit. During his 60-year tenure at Oxford University, he taught history, philosophy, and religion. His thinking was so quick that his mouth couldn’t keep up.

After work, Cox and his colleagues would gather at the local bar. One day Cox mixed Bacardi, sugar, and lime into a glass of ice. Named after the Daiquiri mines, the drink became a popular staple in Havana.  somewhere down the line...someone added shaved ice, and a blender to create the daiquiri we know today.
