Today’s International Holiday:
International Holocaust
Remembrance Day
The United Nations General Assembly established International Holocaust Remembrance Day. On Jan. 27 we remember the Nazi’s act of genocide so that no one else will suffer like that again.
Today’s Obscure Holiday:
Chocolate Cake Day
On a lighter note, take time to enjoy a sweet treat of chocolate cake; my all-time favorite.
