A Few August Celebrations

August 5 was Work Like a Dog Day. I made the kids work hard...

with the occasional dance break.

It was also Night Out Day. The van needed gas so Jeremy and I took a quick jaunt out to the gas station together that night.

 

August 7 was Raspberries 'n Cream Day. We didn't have raspberries but we had fresh blackberries our neighbors picked so I made cupcakes which we topped with whipped topping and blackberries. Close enough.

August 8 was Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Night. Nobody put any on our porch but friends gave us some zucchini later so we could celebrate the holiday observed. Sweet friends.

Raspberries 'n Cream Day 2022

August 7 was Raspberries 'n Cream Day.

I figured frozen mixed berries have raspberries so that would work with whipped topping. Then I made cupcakes so we could have a sort of strawberry shortcake with mixed berries.

Sigh. I seriously thought we had mixed berries in the freezer. I found multiple bags of blueberries and strawberries but nothing with raspberries.

So we celebrated Raspberries 'n Cream Day with strawberry/blueberry shortcake.

Later that night, Jeremy blew a raspberry at me... you know... to celebrate.

 

That day was also National Sisters Day so I wished a Happy National Sisters Day to my sisters.
