National Lemon Cupcake Day On December 15th, its time to pay special attention to cupcakes one specific type, in fact. Lemon is a favorite flavor in the cake and sweets world, and this day is the perfect excuse to enjoy a sweet treat with that distinctive citrus twang. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/lemon-cupcake-day/Re-Gifting Day Re-gifting day was mostly seen as an office holiday before October 24th 2008, which was the day that the state of Colorado declared December 18th as National Re-gifting Day. The origin of the holiday came from office workers who were given gifts that they didnt really want, but didnt want to throw away, so they re-gifted their present to someone who would want it and make good use of it. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/regifting-day/

Cat Herders Day Youve probably heard the saying that something is as impossible as herding cats, used in reference to a seemingly futile or difficult task. Granted, if you have actually attempted to literally herd a bunch of cats for some reason or the other, you would know exactly how impossible this task actually is. All of that said, as far as we know, theres no one out there whos actually a professional cat herder. If there were, this day would actually be for those folks. This is a day for everyone who has to face the frustration of trying to manage the unmanageable, anyone whose day to day life involves insurmountable tasks. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/cat-herders-day/

Kind of like a friend of mine who had an abortion on Mother's Day.
