Daily Holidays - February 4

Homemade Soup Day Soup is a common meal in many countries and probably dates back to the invention of the earliest cooking pots. Today it’s easy to open a can and heat some premade soup, but soup is even better when it’s made at home. Soup is easy, cheap and usually quick to make and can be stuffed full of healthy vegetables. When better to enjoy a delicious bowl of soup than Homemade Soup Day? https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/homemade-soup-day/

National Stuffed Mushroom Day For some crazy reason not all of use human beings love mushrooms. This is likely because those people have never been given the joy of a stuffed mushroom. Or maybe there is just something about stuffing a mushroom with a phenomenally scrumptious filling that elevates it beyond the slightly slimy and off putting original form of the fungus. Either way, few things can match the flavor of a stuffed mushroom and Stuffed Mushroom Day is just the day to gorge on this delightful delicacy. Feel free to set about cramming your taste buds to excess or eating the wonderful ‘shroom slowly in a civilized manner, whichever way you prefer your cuisine. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/stuffed-mushroom-day/

Thank A Mail Carrier Day It’s hard work delivering the mail day in, day out, come rain or shine. Thank A Mailman Day gives you an opportunity to say a polite ‘thank you’ to your postal courier, parcel service, and good old mailman. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/thank-a-mailman-day/

A clean out the refridge soup - chickpeas, onion, celery, carrots, sweet red pepper, diced potatoes, diced tomatoes, veggie stock, some white wine, rosemary and basil.

Just the thing for a winter afternoon.
