Friday, January 24th …

  • National Compliment Day. On this day, the power of a sincere compliment is celebrated. Look for honest ways to compliment the people around you today.
  • National Beer Can Appreciation Day. This day marks the day in 1935 when beer was first offered in cans. Enjoy a cold one and relax.
  • National Peanut Butter Day. The creamy pantry staple is celebrated on this day. Make yourself a simple peanut butter and jelly sandwich or try a more sophisticated offering like sesame peanut butter noodles.
Saturday, January 25th …
  • National Opposite Day. On this day, people are encouraged to do things the opposite way of how they’re done. Have dinner foods for breakfast, talk only in opposites or wear something you’d usually never wear.
  • National Irish Coffee Day. Enjoying coffee with a shot of Irish whiskey, sugar and cream is the best way to enjoy this holiday. You may want to try new variations on the old favorite too.
Sunday, January 26th …
  • National Spouses Day. On this day, take time to show your spouse how much you appreciate them. Celebrate this holiday by doing something special for the two of you.

  • Originally from southern Ontario, Jason found his way here and fell in love with the community and music scene of Thunder Bay over twenty years ago. In between various stints on radio, television and writing, Jason is a dad, a partner and (some would consider) a zoo keeper (seriously, he has a LOT of pets).
