National Nut Day is today.
This day celebrates nutritious and healthy nuts (food) of all kinds. Celebrate today by eating lots of nuts, either as a snack, or in baked goods.
This day also honours all of the nutty people in the world. It gives recognition to all the kooks, loony birds and daffy people in your life. Show them you care today!
Of course it is always possible that this day celebrates the “Nut” that screws onto a bolt for fastening things.
A couple of nutty facts:
- Peanuts are not really nuts. They are Legumes, a member of the “Pea” family.
- The center of seeds, like pumpkins and squash, is called a “nut”.
Have a happy National Nut Day !!
