    📅Food Holidays

    With so many serious and scary things in our world, it's fun to have something light and silly to distract us sometimes. Food holidays may not be a reason for a bank holiday (although who wouldn't want a day off to celebrate National Ice Cream Sandwich day??) but they're fun to think about.

    They're also a really great way to get your kids in the kitchen and talking about food. This is especially great for picky eaters. Did you know that exposing your kids to new foods - even if they don't eat them - is a great way to help them build healthy habits? It's true.

    Now that being said, we have a lot of sweet food days this week, so I'll stick with my mom's mantra of all things in moderation!

    • 7/31 - National Raspberry Cake Day
      • check out this recipe for Raspberry Chocolate Pancake Bundt Cake
    • 7/31 - National Cotton Candy Day
      • celebrate with our kid-friendly Sparkling Cotton Candy Drink
    • 8/1 - National Raspberry Cream Pie Day
    • 8/2 - National Ice Cream Sandwich Day
      • find the perfect recipe from our list of Ice Cream Sandwiches
    • 8/3 - National Watermelon Day
      • cool off with Watermelon Agua Fresca or try a Watermelon Mojito
    • 8/3 - National IPA Day
    • 8/4 - National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day
      • put a spin on the classic with Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookies or Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
    • 8/5 - National Oyster Day
    • 8/6 - National Root Beer Float Day
      • how fun would it be to make these Root Beer Float Cupcakes?
    • 8/6 - National Mustard Day (first Saturday in August)

    In addition to these individual days, August is also:

    • National Panini Month
      • Turkey Pesto Panini Sandwich
      •  Ham, Apple and Swiss Panini
    • National Peach Month
      • Easy Peach Crisp
      • Grilled BBQ Pork Chops + Strawberry Peach Salsa
      • Strawberry Peach BBQ Sauce for Grilling Season
      • Rosé & Peach Ice Pops
    • National Sandwich Month
      • Toasted Caprese Sandwich
      • Turkey Avocado Sandwich
      • BBQ Chicken Sandwich
    • National Catfish Month
      • Fried Catfish Nuggets
      • Crispy Southern Fried Catfish

    I don't know who comes up with these things, but it seems like a fun job to me!

    🍳Breakfast

    ⭐ Tips

    ✔️ Keep your leftovers fresh by using quality airtight containers - these are my favorite.

    ✔️ Double the recipe on Sunday and use the leftovers on Monday and Tuesday!

    ✔️ Stock up on fresh local corn and freeze it for later. Check out this post from Jami that will tell you how to freeze corn three ways: blanched, unblanched and whole. It's a great way to save money!
