Unique Holidays: February 26th, 2022

The Mommies Reviews

Good evening, welcome to our series sharing Unique Holidays: February 26th, 2022. Tomorrow is Chocolate Cake Day and if I didn’t have plans with David and Charlie to go to the Fort Worth Stock Show, I would make my Chocolate Cake with Pecans or let Charlie make the Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake he thinks doesn’t exist. If you make a Chocolate Cake, would you save me a slice, please.

Chocolate Cake Day– Always January 27th.

Chocolate Cake Day is the Chocolate lovers delight, and the perfect Holiday to eat Cake. Why this is a day to “bake or purchase a Chocolate Cake and eat it.

On this Holiday, neither a White nor Yellow Cake will do. Nor will half Chocolate, half White suffice. The Cake must be Chocolate, all Chocolate. You can make Milk Chocolate, or Fudge, or any other type of Chocolate Cake.

The only reference to Chocolate Cake Day on the Internet is from Ecard and Calendar Websites. This might lead you to conclude that this as a Holiday created by the Ecard companies. But we know better. This Holiday is for you, our Chocolate Cake lovers.

There are three objectives of Chocolate Cake Day: To bake a Chocolate Cake. Decorate a Chocolate Cake and last not least, to eat a Chocolate Cake. If you are too busy to bake or decorate a Cake, then just eating a Chocolate Cake will fine.

History and Origin of Chocolate Cake Day:

Our extensive research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day. Perhaps, it was baker. Perhaps, it was a food company. Most likely, it was a chocolate cake…eater!

Punch the Clock Day– Event is always January 27th.

Every once in a while, you come upon a Holiday that just defies definition. Punch the Clock Day is one of those days. Despite all of our research, we found no content information on the Internet to define the meaning of this Holiday. And, you won’t find information about today in the old Encyclopedias either. 

But Punch the Clock Day is found on Ecard and Calendar Websites. So, this must truly be an important Holiday of the year.

Not ones to give up easily, we put our thinking caps on, and pondered the meaning of this Holiday.  We quickly determined that this Holiday is not intended to encourage people to punch their clocks. This is destructive, and it serves no logical purpose, and may result in personal injury. But it might be a fun thing to do.

Smart as we are we quickly surmised that Punch the Clock Day is a Holiday to celebrate the punch clock or time clocks we use at work. Now, we wondered why celebrate the punch clock at work? While it is the way many of us get paid, punching the work clock certainly doesn’t cause us any joy. 

History and Origin of Punch the Clock Day:

We have yet to discover who created this Holiday, or the original date of creation.

“This holiday celebrates the system of calculating employee work hours through the Punch Clock and its invention. On this Holiday you are encouraged to share a day of celebration at your workplace. The management should have plenty of Coffee, Tea and Doughnuts in the break room. Then all your work mates can get together on their Coffee break and celebrate the punch clock ” …Anonymous
