Holidays 2021-04-30 (b)
The problem of hairballs, abstaining from spanking as punishment for children, the importance of honesty in all parts of life, the Mr Potato Head toy, oatmeal cookies, raisins, and Walpurgis (the other Halloween) are part of today's observances landscape: Walpurgis Night Spank Out Day National Raisin Day National Oatmeal Cookie Day National Mr. Potato Head Day National Honesty Day National Hairball Awareness Day Another rendition of National Oatmeal Cookie Day is on March 18. April 30 is basically a half-year from Halloween, and just as spooky. Maybe seasonal transitions bothered our ancestors, since both autumn and spring have scary holidays associated with them.
