National Coffee Break Day For most, coffee is an essential part of the day. Instead of heading to the Keurig machine for that mid-morning or afternoon coffee break, we recommend you hit up these San Diego restaurants to get that coffee fix and celebrate National Coffee Break Day on January 20th. http://sandiegofoodfinds.com/national-coffee-break-day-2015/
Camcorder Day Camcorder Day is a tribute to videography of all varieties. Perhaps youre a professional and enjoy shooting wildlife (with a lens, not a gun), or an extreme sports fan who attaches a GoPro to their helmet before jumping out of a plane. Or maybe you just like recording memories that can be cherished forevermore, from weddings and birthdays, to your son dancing like an Egyptian to the Addams Family movies end credits, for reasons that will never become evident. That last one may sound a little unbelievable but one of our web crew made a mistake when he was twelve, one that cant be erased because he doesnt know where his mum has hidden the tape.
So get out there and get filming, then upload it to YouTube or Vimeo and share it with the rest of the planet! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/camcorder-day/

(10,418 posts)1. I can definitely get on-board with National Cheese Lover's Day
When my wife asks me if she put too much cheese on some dish that she cooked I tell her that is impossible.
