National Vanilla Milkshake DayThe first time the term milkshake was used in print was in 1885. At this time, milkshake referred to an alcoholic beverage which was a whiskey drink described as a study, healthful eggnog type of drink with eggs, whiskey and etc., served as a tonic as well as a treat.
By 1900,
Maybe you want to top off your vanilla milkshake with a little whipped cream and a cherry on top!! http://nationaldaycalendar.com/days-2/national-vanilla-milkshake-day-june-20/
World Productivity Day One of the less well-known celebratory days, World Productivity Day does not have a central focus for celebration. Its instead an occasion for suppliers of productivity tools, training and advances to celebrate their contributions and give something back to their users. For example, some consultancy firms use the event to provide free online sessions to prospective clients to demonstrate what a difference focus on productivity can make.
Other, less obviously relevant, businesses also use World Productivity Day to draw attention to their products and services in the context of getting the most out of work. Coffee and other caffeinated beverage manufacturers use the day as a chance to promote the putative benefits of using their products to stay alert and productive at work. Companies that sell products such as chocolate that can be used to reward productivity may also choose to use the occasion as a chance to promote this. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/world-productivity-day/

(72,300 posts)1. To hell with diabetes (for one day) I want a vanilla shake.
I have been addicted to ice cream for over 60 years, it's hard to pass the shoppes open for the summer season but I haven't had a milkshake since last year.

I guess I should refer to him as a cat now, since he's turning a year old. Should I offer him a vanilla milkshake?
