A Branch Is a Stick, Right?

Something on a Stick Day, March 28.  Jeremy was invited today to go into someone's yard to take pictures of a Western Screech-Owl roosting in her tree.  I guess word is getting around about our new hobby.
We wanted to do some birding anyway, looking for birds sitting on sticks for the holiday.  A branch counts as a stick, right?
We were also going to make corn dogs for dinner, but Jeremy was out setting up Nichole's science fair project (more on that later) and didn't get back in time.  So plans changed and we made pigs in a blanket with toothpicks stuck in them.  Something on a stick.
Nobody complained about dinner again.

Something on a Stick Day 2011


It's an annual tradition for us. Corn Dogs for Something on a Stick Day, March 28. Sometimes we do a little more. One year, we also had pickles on a stick. That was fun. This year, we of course ate corn dogs.


Then I used my rubber chicken lollipop holder to enjoy a sucker.


When I got it years ago, it came with packaging that said, "A tasty treat on a classic shtick" or something like that. And speaking of shtick, we decided to watch Megamind while eating. Slap"stick" and plenty of shtick in that movie.


After Jeremy went to work, the kids and I put construction paper circles on popsicle sticks with the words "Go" on the green one and "Stop" on the red one. We then played "Red Light. Green Light."


What other ways can you think of to celebrate this holiday?
