Remember those little drawing toys with knobs? A reason to smile and draw something… messy and fun.
🥧 National Pecan Pie Day
When the soul wants something sweet — a warm pecan pie says, “I got you.” Feels like Saturday at grandma’s.

A traditional holiday in Northern Ireland — parades, music, and heritage. Somewhere out there — a street festival.
📖 On This Day in History:
