July 7, 2014: Happy Father-Daughter Take a Walk Together Day! Although I hope that all you fathers out there take a walk with your daughters on more than one day per year. If you only do things with your kids on specifically designated holidays, you might not be that great a father. (I’m reminded of when I see fathers refer to “babysitting” their own kids. It’s not babysitting if they’re yours, it’s called being a parent. But I digress.)

Today is also Macaroni Day. Or, more technically, one of two possible dates for Macaroni Day — the other is July 14th. But I got more Google hits for this one, so I’m calling it good. (Although if there’s Kraft Macaroni and Cheese Dinner to be had on both days, I’d be a happy camper. That cheese powder is THE BOMB.)
