Today Is Sweetest Day!!!

October 17th is a national holiday! It's Sweetest Day a day devoted to all things sweet, especially candy and more specifically chocolate. Actually I had forgotten about this.Let's face any October holiday is overshadowed by Halloween. However this one is a fun one too and celebrates candy.Unlike the other this has a deeper meaning and remind sus to be selfless.



Sweetest Day isn't one of these new-fangled holidays to brew up trade for candy companies. it was actually started in 1922 by Herbert Birch Kingston in Cleveland. it was designated to be the third Saturday in October and was created for the benefit of Cleveland orphans and shut ins..The holiday still a big one there as it is in Detroit and Buffalo. People give and receive small boxes of chocolate along with sweet notes. It's to remind people that others in their lives have meaning and worth.



This Sweetest Day I'll be buying little ballotins from Butlers for family . The candy shop has the best candy and I want my relatives to appreciate the good taste of fine chocolates. I also want them to know that they mean the world to me and this a very small way of thanking them for doing too much. It's also a nice way of reminding them that they do mean so much to me.



This Sweetest Day treat your friends and loved ones to a small gift of chocolate or even a random act of kindness. Remind them of how much they mean to you and how they sweeten up your life.
