Death/Duty Day - As everyone should know today is Remembrance Day or Veteran’s Day which commemorates the end of World War I in 1918 as well pays tribute to those who lost their lives while serving their country. Death/Duty Day is similar in that it brings attention to those who died while on duty. No doubt, this happens still to this day and affects everyone equally as it did back then. Sometimes it’s harder to ask yourself if you have the courage to fight for your country like so many innocent men and women did back then when times and conditions were harder. I can’t imagine what it would be like to be separated from family for so long not knowing if I’d see them again, so I am truly gracious and thankful that there are such men and women in the world who perform these selfless acts to give other people a chance to live in a peaceful world.

National Vanilla Cupcake Day - Now while I am a huge fan of chocolate, I won’t turn down any kind of cupcake, that’s for sure! Cupcakes are my ultimate indulgence, and I could eat ‘em all day which is why I refrain from baking them often. Today, you’re fully encouraged to eat as many cupcakes as you want in as little or as many bites as you want…all day long. I’ve been waiting for a holiday like this! There is really no main reason why we’re celebrating today’s holiday except for the fact that the inventors of silly holidays looked at the November calendar and thought “hmm, there’s really not enough dessert holidays in November.” Hey, no one is complaining here! Now, if you haven’t baked in a while, today would be a great way to bake a batch of cupcakes for yourself, family or if your child needs them for a bake sale. The advantage of making your own cupcakes is that you can frost them with whatever kind of icing you like! For everything you need to make award-winning cupcakes, check out Target.
