Little Known Holidays In October That Deserve A Cake

Here you go all of you marketing geniuses! I've done a little searching and found a site with some known, and some obscure holidays, all of which could be a great reason for someone to buy a cake (if they need an excuse, LOL). Now there's no reason to wait for a birthday or anniversary! 
http://www.holidaysforeveryday.com/caloct06.shtml
So many reasons to drop off a little cake, plate of cookies, or small cookie bouquet! And HEY! Oct 14th is National Dessert Day! Who Knew?! 
I plan on making a little cookie bouquet for a dear friend of mine on October 1st, for International Day of Older People (she is 2 weeks older than me, LOL!) I found that one listed at www.123greetings.com, they have a listing down the right side of the page of daily 'holidays'.
(guess who is playing on the computer to avoid folding laundry tonight??)
Can't believe my birthday is national dessert day!!! Does this mean I get 2 cakes???
What a neat site! My anniversary is Let them Eat Cake day - who knew? Fitting, and I didn't even know it! Thanks for sharing! Some people need an excuse for cake, I'm not one of those people, but I could steer them here! LOL
kats - I think you should ALWAYS get 2 cakes for your birthday! 
We all better be getting something special on the 21st - Sweetest Day.
OK!! NOW, I'm ticked off!! My daughter gets National Chocolate Day, and I get National Apricot Day?? Something NOT right about that. How about this? She also gets 'National Dessert Month' and never mind about 'National Cookie Month'. Guess what? I get 'National Soup Month'. WooHoo!! Just checked again. I also get 'Oatmeal Month'. My month is sooo lame!! Can I trade with somebody?? 
Hey, if you need even more excuses check out:
www.brownielocks.com
(click on bizarre holidays at the bottom of the page to get to the month you want).
They list everything by Day, by week and by month- So essentially not one of the 365 days is not celebrating something!!! My birthday is "Laugh and Get Rich Day"!
I love all the fun "holidays" that we didn't even know existed! Sometimes at work, I will print out the list of special days and do little fun things for my staff.
August was national Chocolate chip day. I got chocolate chip cookies for everybody (plus icing to dip them in!). I also looked up the history of the chocolate chip and passed that around along with the cookies. Everyone thought it was fun!
I was too busy to do any this month. It sounds like there are some good days, so I need to look them up!!

Same day as my son, that's not fair because I want 2 cakes for my birthday.
They missed one of the month things on that site though, April is also Month of the Military Child. The military child also has a flower, the dandilion.
I've got some really lame monthly stuff - but here's how lame my daily birthday stuff is!
14- National Cream-filled Donut Day
14- National D.A.R.E. Day (Second Thursday In September)
14- National Day of the Working Parent (Second Thursday In September)
14- National Pet Memorial Day
Okay now the cream-filled donut is okay - but I don't like donuts! But day of the working parent and national pet memorial? Yeah that sounds like fun........
