Welcome to our series sharing Unique Holidays: August 30th, 2022. It’s National Eat Outside Day and were having Homemade Hamburgers this evening. Which is a perfect Picnic meal its raining so we have to eat inside this evening. Saving National Eat Outside Day to another day. When we do eat outside would you like to join us?
National Eat Outside Day– always held on August 31st
The last day of August means Summer is almost over. Yet, a lot of us can’t get enough of the great outdoors. The Sun is bright and warm, the Weather is great and National Eat Outside Day couldn’t come at a better time.
Did you know people have been eating outdoors since the days of the Caveman. Nowadays, people eat most, if not all, of their meals indoors. Eating outdoors has become more of a special event, than a regular occurrence. National Eat Outdoors Day, is an opportunity to change that, even if it’s only for a day.
Celebrating this holiday is very easy. Find a picnic table, an outdoor restaurant. Or you could spread a blanket out on the lawn. Use one of these places to eat all of your meals, including snacks, Popsicles and Ice Cream, outside in the sunshine and fresh air.
History and Origin of National Eat Outside Day:
Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of National Eat Outside Day. People have searched every picnic table and outside eatery that they could find, but haven’t found the creator of this holiday. We are certain he or she is outdoors eating somewhere.
We did not find any documentation confirming this to be a “National” holiday and we found no congressional records or presidential proclamation.
National Trail Mix Day features a high energy, tasty treat for the trail or snacks. You can purchase packages of Trail Mix at a store. Or, you can make up your own, Trail Mix using the ingredients you like best.
When you head out to a campout, a hike or to go biking, take Trail Mix along with you. Trail Mix provides the extra energy boost to keep you from getting tired and running out of energy along the trail. Don’t limit Trail Mix to the trail because Trail Mix is also good at campouts.
Thank you,
