National Avocado Day

July 31

🌱🥑🥑🌱🥑🥑🌱

Ripe for the picking, add this delicious super-fruit to your menu on National Avocado Day on July 31st!

Don’t mix up National Avocado Day (July 31) with National Guacamole Day in September. While most restaurants celebrate Avocado Day the same way - with offers for free guacamole - some are offering discounts on other dishes featuring the big green fruit.
While guacamole is grand, don’t settle for just the chips and dip on this food holiday. Since avocado is so versatile, clear the table for the entire meal. That includes everything from the appetizer and main dish all the way to dessert. On National Avocado Day, this tree grown fruit has them all covered!
🥑
Avocados are more than a staple food in the American diet; they are proven to be a key ingredient in recipes for both inside the body and on the body! According to the Hass Avocado Board, as of 2015, avocado consumption in the United States doubled since 2005 and quadrupled since 2000. In fact, a whopping 4.25 billion avocados were sold in the U.S. in 2015. That’s four point two five billion of this amazingly beautiful food.

Super Food 🥑
There are many reasons to celebrate National Avocado Day. For one, avocados target insulin resistance with heart-healthy fats. They also fight Alzheimer’s with its Omega 3 fatty acids. Another avocado superpower is preventing and repairing damage due to its source of Vitamins C, E and K.
One of the secret weapons in an avocado is the high oleic acid content. This moisturizing fatty acid helps keep skin soft and hydrated but also supports the regeneration of damaged skin cells reducing redness and irritation. Eat more of this superfruit or cook with avocado oil if you have this type of skin issue.

Beauty
Ancient Aztecs used the avocado to beautify their skin topically with masks. Then in the early 20th century, the cosmetic industry discovered the benefits of its oil in creams, lotions, facial cleansers and other products that required a smooth application. Interestingly, the practice continues today.
As mentioned before, avocados have found their way into every meal of the day. Of course, avocados celebrate with dessert effortlessly. Additionally, the creamy texture replaces calorie-laden oils with healthful fats. That means we can indulge without the guilt. What better way to celebrate National Avocado Day than to indulge a little?

Cheesecake Day 🍰 July 30th

National Cheesecake Day

 

National Cheesecake Day on July 30th offers a slice of one of America’s favorite desserts. Order up a cheesecake with your favorite topping. Get it delivered or make it at home.

This smooth dessert hits the spot when the end of the meal rolls around. While most cakes have a crumb, cheesecake’s texture is nothing like cake. Indeed, its creamy, thick pudding-like character comes from the soft cheese used as the main ingredient. Depending on the recipe, either cream cheese or cottage cheese is used. When the cheese is mixed with sugar, eggs, and other ingredients, the batter is added to a crust.

When making cheesecake, one of the most common crusts used is a graham cracker crust. Other options include a cookie crust, pastry or sponge cake. However, some cheesecakes are crustless. Recipes vary and cheesecakes may be prepared baked or unbaked.

When faced with choosing a cheesecake flavor, don’t panic. While the options may seem overwhelming, bakers solved this problem. They offer a variety of flavors in one cake. So, take one home and try each one. Since cheesecakes do come in a wide variety, consider your tastes. If you prefer summer fruits and berries, cheesecakes have you covered. Tropical options hit the spot, too. For coffee lovers, bakers provide a rich selection. And don’t forget delicious chocolate and nutty flavors. Each cheesecake may be served with fresh fruit, a sauce, whipped cream or plain.

History of the Cheesecake
When it comes to searching for cheesecake’s history, we look to ancient Greece. A form of the dessert comes up as a recipe served to athletes. It has been found that the earliest attested mention of a cheesecake is by Greek physician Aegimus, who wrote a book on the art of making cheesecakes.

While recipes for cheesecake served athletes in ancient Greece, cream cheese has been a part of American’s dessert making since about the 1820s. However, after the advent of pasteurization, mass production became possible. One dairy farmer from Chester, New York, decided to be the first. William A. Lawrence purchased a Neufchatel factory to begin his production and in 1873 the first mass-produced cream cheese became a reality.

Canta 👄 Para la Salud 🎼

The lyrics of the song tells of someone who, while grinding coffee at night, feels frustrated at having to work instead of having a love life.

Martin Zarzar ☕ Moliendo Café

( Lyrics)

Cuando la tarde languidece renacen las sombras,
y en la quietud los cafetales vuelven a sentir
esta triste canción de amor de la vieja molienda,
que en el letargo de la noche parece gemir.
Una pena de amor, una tristeza
lleva el zambo Manuel, en su amargura
pasa incansable las noches moliendo café...

☕

Grinding coffee
When the evening fades, the shadows are reborn
And in the silence the plantations again hear
the sad love song of the old mill
which in the silence of the night seems to say:
Some kind of heartbreak, some kind of sadness,
carries the zambo Manuel in his bitterness.
He tirelessly works throughout the night grinding coffee.

Ricardo Montaner

☕ Moliendo Café ☕

"Moliendo Café" is a Venezuelan song that has become popular around the world. The authorship of the song is disputed between Hugo Blanco and his maternal uncle, Jose Manzo Perroni. According to Hugo Blanco, he composed the song in 1958, and since he was not of age (he was 17 years old), he asked his uncle to register the work for him at SACVEN (Sociedad de Autores y Compositores de Venezuela). A few years later, Jose Manzo Perroni sued his nephew for appropriating the work, claiming that it was he who composed the song, and that his nephew had stolen the melody. The first to record "Moliendo Café" was Mario Suárez in 1958; Hugo Blanco did not record it himself until 1961. Blanco's version hit #1 in Argentina and Japan in 1961.

Cuban singer Xiomara Alfaro's Spanish-language version peaked at #1 in Peru. Lucho Gatica's version of the song peaked at #3 in Spain. Mina's version topped the Italian singles chart and was the #11 track on the end-of-year chart. At present, the song has more than 800 versions in many languages. In Japan, the song's title is "Coffe Rumba". In Indonesia, the song is titled "Kopi Dangdut" and was a hit in that country in 1991. Ricardo Montaner performed a cover of the song on his 2001 album Sueño Repetido.

"Moliendo Café" has become a popular chant for soccer fans around the world. The chant is widely known as "Dale Cavese" in Europe and has the same tune as the song as the song is chanted first in Argentina in 70's and all know this song as Dale Sanlore or Dale Boca. http://www.rivistaundici.com/2016/12/05/dale-cavese

"Moliendo Café" ("Grinding Coffee") is a Venezuelan song that has become popular around the world. Blanco's recording in 1961 became No. 1 in Argentina, and it has since been recorded by many singers. The song has also become a common football chant around the world as "Dale Cavese".

Cantar en la ducha es bueno para la salud

Son muchas las personas que debajo del grifo calientan sus gargantas y convierten la ducha en el escenario de un karaoke. Pero pocas son las que saben que, además de hacer más divertido el momento del baño, cantar es beneficioso para la salud.

☕

Según un estudio realizado en la Universidad de Frankfurt (Alemania) las personas que habían cantado liberaron endorfinas en el sistema nervioso que ayudan a sentirse más animado y enérgico. Esto provocó que aumentaran los niveles de inmunoglobulina A (que funciona como anticuerpo) y de hidrocortisona, la hormona contra el estrés. Por esta razón, comenzar el día cantando bajo la ducha es una buena opción para tener energía.

☕

Cantar ayuda también a ejercitar los pulmones y llega a tonificar los músculos abdominales e intercostales, además de estimular la circulación, por lo que ayuda al buen funcionamiento del cerebro. El tipo de ejercicio que se realiza al cantar ayuda a combatir los ronquidos, al activar los músculos de la garganta. Al cantar, también se respira más profundo, por lo que el cuerpo recibe más oxígeno, beneficio que también ayuda a aumentar la capacidad aeróbica, una característica importante si se practican otros deportes.

Otra de las cosas positivas es que cantar fortalece la memoria. ¿Cómo? Es obvio que en la ducha, en el coche, o por la calle no vamos a meter ningún papel o aparato que muestre la letra de la canción. Por ello, recordar lo que dice nuestra canción favorita combate las pérdidas de memoria.

Además de estas razones fisiológicas, existen otros aspectos externos que harán recapacitar a aquellos que todavía no canten en la ducha: la acústica del baño es perfecta. Esta habitación actúa como caja de resonancia en la que rebotan las ondas y la voz parece más potente. nadie va a decir si cantas mal o bien. Por tanto, la felicidad aumentará al disfrutar cantando e interpretando las letras de las canciones.

GrandMa 👵 Day 👵🏾 July 23 👵🏻

National Gorgeous GrandMa Day

Celebrated Annually on July 23

GrandMa Day

Maybe you call her Nana. Maybe you call her Granny. Maybe you call her when you’re in trouble because you know she’ll be there for you at the drop of a hat. Whatever the case may be, today is her day. 

But it’s not just Grandma Day - oh no. This July 23, we celebrate National Gorgeous Grandma Day. Today’s the day to tell ol’ Granny just how stunning she really is. She looks fly for an eighty year old, you have to admit. We bet all the grandpas are dying to get with her.

History of National Gorgeous Grandma Day
National Gorgeous Grandma Day is celebrated annually on July 23. As the name of the holiday suggests, our dearest, cuddliest grandmothers are celebrated. Grandmothers endlessly love and treasure their families, and typically have an infectious love for life. They have experienced a lot and have the best words of wisdom for us. With all the aches and pains of old age, most grandmothers have positive attitudes and amazing energy, which radiates into our lives. The day aims to celebrate women over the age of 50 and encourages them to defy society’s standards and live it up a bit.
We love our grandmothers but, most of the time, we see them in a stereotypical old-fashioned way. Grandmothers are expected to be calm, collected, have an outdated style, and spend their days baking and knitting. Society’s narrow perception that women shouldn’t dress up, wear bright colors, and go on dates after the age of 50 is primitive. National Gorgeous Grandma Day intends to dispel this mindset and encourage people not to frown upon ladies over the age of 50 who are not ready to retire to a quiet life yet.

Alice Solomon graduated at the age of 50 from Wellesley College in 1984. She realized that society saw her and other women of her age as senior citizens, regardless of whether or not they were actual ‘grandmothers.’ Determined to challenge this thinking, she came up with the idea of ‘Gorgeous Grandma.’ Women who were apparently ‘beyond their expiration date’ and no longer relevant are termed as ‘grandmas,’ so Solomon decided to embrace the term, but amped it up with the use of the word ‘gorgeous.’ Gorgeous Grandma is all about presenting an edgier image of older women and eliminating stereotypes confining them in a limited box.

Traditions
If you are a grandmother or a woman who is in the age bracket that can be considered a grandmother, the traditions for the day is to make yourself the priority. Grandmothers spend most of their time loving their children and grandchildren, and looking after others. So the priority of the day is to pamper yourself and do something exciting that you normally wouldn’t on a regular day. Try a new class, make a Tik Tok video, blog, or even skateboard (if your body allows it).

Those who have a grandma or know an elderly female family member or friend, making the day exciting for them is a tradition. Spend time with them, pamper them, have fun, and get them to try something new. 

Think out of the box, and defy assumed age limitations!

Why is Grandma special?
A grandmother’s love is a special kind. It is pure and unconditional, and overlooks all faults and flaws of her children and grandchildren.

Do you celebrate grandmas on Mothers Day?
Grandmothers ARE mothers, so when celebrating our parents, we also celebrate their parents!

National Gorgeous Grandma Day Activities
Take her shopping
When’s the last time you treated your grandma to a date? Today is the day to pamper her and treat her the way she deserves. Take this time to go shopping with her. Spoil her. Give her a modern day makeover and make her feel like the young fox she once was. (Well, is, really. Did we mention our grandmas are gorgeous yet? Grandma, if you’re reading this, you’re a foxy babe.)

Why We Love National Gorgeous Grandma Day

😍

She Makes the Best. Food. Ever. 🍝 🍰 🍲

Think about it, who makes the best food in your family? 

Whose food do you look forward to during the holidays? 

It’s always Grandma’s, am I right? Now, calm down - this is not an attack on other family members. But we’re just saying, no one in history has ever said, “This Mac’N’Cheese is amazing. Just like Uncle Jim Bob used to make it!” Well, one person out there might have said it, but you know what we mean. 

Grandmas make the best dishes. Period.

Live with it, Uncle Jim Bob. Jim Bob’s probably not as gorgeous as Grandma, either. She takes the cake (see what we did there) for cooking with style and panache. Speaking of which, we’re hungry. 

Do you think our grandmas would make us some food?

She has (less than) no filter
Most gorgeous grandmothers have the tendency to say whatever comes to mind, no matter who they are around. We aren’t sure what the reason is, but we’ve narrowed it down to two possibilities. They either don’t care, or they don’t know what they are saying is “politically incorrect.” 

Either way, we’re 100% here for it. It may not fit in with our society’s standards, but it’s entertaining to say the least. Is this a good time to mention how gorgeous our grandmas look while spouting politically incorrect nonsense? No? Well we did it anyway. Our grandmas are beautiful and we don’t care who knows it. Take that, world!

 

She's a rebel with a cause 
Grandmas are badasses set in their ways, and they typically don’t like to listen to rules. Especially rules like, “Do not give Johnny Jr. ice cream, Mom.” Saying that to the average grandma is like telling her not to push a giant red button. Forget about it. Grandmas love to spoil their children regardless of what they are told. 

And so even though we love our gorgeous grandmas, we suspect our children love them even more. They’re not thinking about things like early onset diabetes—oh no. They’re just reveling in sugar highs all day.
