As you know, we occasionally look at the Days of the Year website to see if there is a “Day” we want to celebrate.

Today is “Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day“!  Now how can anyone question this???

This day was started as a way to raise awareness for childhood cancers.

“Life’s short, eat Dessert First” is a phrase that has been bandied about by a lot of people for reasons both flippant and serious.  Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day is one of the more serious, serving to increase awareness about childhood cancer.  For children for whom every day is a blessing, it only makes sense to indulge in life’s little pleasures, and Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast day brings that opportunity to everyone.  Here is the link to their website.

So about 9 am we saw this; about 10 am John went to the store to get ice cream, bananas, and whipped cream; about 10:45, we are sitting down to breakfast!  (there is ice cream under the whipped cream!)
