Time limit: 12 minutes

It seems every day of the year has a holiday attached to it. The major holidays are easy to identify, from Christmas to Easter. Then there’s the “other” holidays, the ones few know about. March 19th is Poultry Day. August 23rd is National Spongecake Day. If there is a holiday for moldy cheese (October 9th), there can be a holiday for you.

Your task today is to invent a holiday. Pick something near and dear to your heart or just something stupid. Choose the holiday’s date, name and what rituals or traditions are to be followed on that day.
