In the U.S. the first Friday in June is "National Doughnut/Donut Day" but don't take my word for it, check out the Wikipedia entry on it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Doughnut_Day or any of the hundreds of popular media articles which seem to have been based in part on it (for NPR fans, see: http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2013/06/07/189514005/on-national-doughnut-day-free-food-and-feel-good-history )
Interestingly, Canada does not observe "National Doughnut/Donut Day" even though it apparently has more Doughnut/Donut shops per capita of any country in world, see: http://o.canada.com/2013/06/07/national-doughnut-day/ and http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/news-video/20130606theglobeandmailnationaldonutday720p3000kbpsmp4/article12393999/ Perhaps they mask the holiday with "Tim Horton's Day" or may be they think everyday is Doughnut/Donut Day up there. ;-) -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] P.S. What is it with Canadian pirating Netflix from the U.S.!? See: http://o.canada.com/2012/10/08/thousands-of-canadians-are-accessing-u-s-netflix/ *sigh* I guess it's just another drawback of being Canadian. ;-) That and having crack smoking mayors. ;-) --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
