National Boston Cream Pie Day: More
Created by rmenian-French chef M. Sanzian in 1856 at the
Parker House Hotel in Boston. It is not a pie but a two layer cake with
cream or custard between layers and frosted with chocolate.
Tomorrow's food holiday will be ' National Boston Cream Pie Day'. Created by Armenian-French chef M. Sanzian in 1856 at the Parker House Hotel in Boston. It is not a pie but a two layer cake with cream or custard between layers and frosted with chocolate.
[The Hankster says] A cream pie by any other name would taste the same. No, I played off that phrase a couple of days ago. How about a pie in the hand is worth two cakes in the bush or I never met a pie I didn't like (even if it was a cake). But the deception does not stop there. If pie are square, why is this a round cake? Huh, answer me that. And let us not even approach the cream vs custard controversy.
Tomorrow is not a day to get out the traps or look for hidden spies. It will be 'Mole Day', but of a different kind. Since 1991 by the National Mole Day Foundation to promote chemistry. A mole is a unit of measurement that expresses the amounts of a chemical substance. The event is held between 6:02 AM and 6:02 PM. The number 6.02, actually 6.02x10 to the 23, is Avodagro's constant that defines the number of particles in one mole of substance.
[The Hankster says] See why I do this heads up stuff. I'm sure you wouldn't have been able to make it through tomorrow, without the proper definition of this concept.
Tomorrow is 'National TV Talk Show Host Day'. Johnny Carson’s birthday, October 23, 1925.
Californians look up tomorrow. It will be 'Swallows Depart from San Juan Capistrano Day'. The 23rd is, Day of San Juan, and it is around this day that the Swallows start their over 6,000 mile winter migration south to Argentina.
[The Hankster says] I wonder what travel agency they use? I bet the Internet will be busy tomorrow with all the online bookings.
It's 'IPod Day' tomorrow. Their first introduction on this day in 2001. First sold on November 10 for $399.
I mention this day. Tomorrow is 'Slap Your Irritating Co- workers Day'. parody day.
[The Hankster says] As always, I provide the disclaimer, that I do not condone such violence. But for just once ...never mind.
