National Blueberry Popsicle Day: More
Tomorrow's food holiday will be: 'National Blueberry Popsicle Day'.
[The Hankster says] I wonder if there is a Momsicle. Good thing I looked it up. The answer is yes, but it deals with a different type of nourishment. We told the story of the invention of the Popsicle, back on Cherry Popsicle Day.
Tomorrow is 'V-J Day / Victory over Japan Day'. In 1945, the Japanese Instrument of Surrender was formally signed on board the USS Missouri. Some countries celebrate the announcement of surrender on August 14/15 depending on the time zone.
A nonsense day tomorrow. Yes another. 'Bison-ten Yell Day'. A play on the word, bicentennial. It honors the person who invented ten verbal signals that could be yelled during a war to alert one's soldiers to the battle plan.
Can't find any health or pet awareness days for this date.

September is:
September origin (from Wikipedia): Originally September (Latin septem, "seven") was the seventh of ten months on the oldest known Roman calendar.
September in the Northern Hemisphere is the seasonal equivalent of March in the Southern Hemisphere.
After the calendar reform that added January and February to the beginning of the year, September became the ninth month, but retained its name. It had 29 days until the Julian reform, which added a day.
