To celebrate today, start by letting go of those things causing unnecessary stress. Start the day by not worrying about being late for work. If you must, take things in your own time, drive casually without rushing through traffic and, if someone cuts you off – just laugh it off and continue on your journey. Today you should let go of the things that normally drive you up the wall – let it slide and be free of the pain and worry – even if it is just for one day.

The truth is, people don’t remember most conversations, so it’s useless having something great to say every time it is your turn to talk. Instead, you have to practice speaking without thinking. This lets you relax and enjoy conversations more because you now just say whatever “feels” right.

Straddling the line between fall and winter, plenty and paucity, life and death, Halloween is a time of celebration and superstition. It is thought to have originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off roaming ghosts.

National Good and Plenty Day is an unofficial food holiday observed annually on October 24th. On this day, fans of this chewy licorice treat celebrate by indulging in this old-fashioned candy. Good and Plenty, which is now a Hershey's brand candy, was originally produced by Philadelphia candy-maker in 1893. It is said to be the oldest commercial brand of candy in the United States.

Today is National Good and Plenty Day.  This is one of those candies that you either like or don’t.  This licorice treat is the oldest brand of candy in the U.S.A.  Good and Plenty was first made in 1893, by the Quaker City Confectionery Company of Philadelphia. In the 1950s, the brand was given a popularity boost by the Choo Choo Charlie television commercial. Choo Choo Charlie was a train engineer that used Good & Plenty to power his locomotive.

The number of prunes that should be added to the daily diet varies by individual nutritional needs, but it is recommended that a person consume 10 to 12 prunes per day for the best health results. Some people may need to add prunes to their diet slowly, starting with 3 to 5 prunes per day, if they are not accustomed to eating foods high in fiber.

Today is Four Prunes Day. It may sound like a funny name for a food celebration. But four prunes are the minimum of what people who want more “digestive regularity” should take per day (up to a maximum of 9 prunes a day). We love prunes and prune juice. But many Americans steer clear of them, perhaps because of their association with regularity, which goes back to before great-grandmother’s day. A campaign several years back tried to change the name of prunes to “dried plums” (which is what prunes are) to make them more appealing.

Columbus Day is a U.S. holiday that commemorates the landing of Christopher Columbus in the New World on October 12, 1492. It was unofficially celebrated in a number of cities and states as early as the 18th century but did not become a federal holiday until the 1937. For many, the holiday is a way of both honoring Columbus’ achievements and celebrating Italian-American heritage. Throughout its history, Columbus Day and the man who inspired it have generated controversy, and many alternatives to the holiday have appeared in recent years.

While Napoleon was ravaging Europe with his ambition in this village in the Sierra de Gata lived a priest, don Ramón Vacas Roxo, which, according to the chronicles, "convinced of the importance of trees for health, hygiene, decoration, nature, environment and customs, decides to plant trees and give a festive air. The festival began on Carnival Tuesday with the ringing of two bells of the church, and the Middle and the Big. After the Mass, and even coated with church ornaments, don Ramón, accompanied by clergies, teachers and a large number of neighbours, planted the first tree, a poplar, in the place known as Valley of the Ejido.
