Fear is a survival response, but sometimes it becomes overwhelming and may control our lives. In this circumstance, it may cause us to become overly cautious, or make us react in harmful ways. Nothing to Fear Day is a day when people examine their fears and see if the fears are preventing them from living life to the fullest. It may be a day to work to overcome these fears. It is also a day to be aware of the way that people and governments use baseless fears to manipulate people, either inadvertently or on purpose. May 27 was chosen as the date of Nothing to Fear Day because it was on this date in 1941 that President Franklin D. Roosevelt gave a speech where he said: "We must not be defeated by the fear of the very danger which we are preparing to resist. Our freedom has shown its ability to survive war, but our freedom would never survive surrender. 'The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.'"

Bees are so vital to the health of our planet that they
have their own day. World Bee Day takes place on 20 May and is designed to
spread awareness of the significance of bees. A third of the world's food
production depends on bees. Bees pollinate (a process vital to crops
growing) 75% of leading global crops, including oilseed rape, apples, soft
fruits, beans and courgettes, as well as things like tomatoes and strawberries.
You might swat them away when you’re trying to relax in your garden this
summer, but you’d definitely miss bees if they were wiped out entirely.

The earliest known apple pie recipe was printed by Geoffrey Chaucer in England in 1381. It included apples, spices, raisins, figs, pears, and saffron in a pastry crust. A Dutch apple pie recipe was found that dates to 1514. Dutch apple pies usually have a lattice pastry top. French, German, and Italian apple pies all appeared in recipe books before American colonies had been settled. Many early apple pie recipes didn't include sugar, and some early pies were made in inedible containers called coffins. Today, apple pie usually has a bottom and top crust. It can be served hot or cold and can be topped with ice cream, custard, and whipped cream. The earliest record of the phrase "American as apple pie" dates to 1924, when it appeared in an advertisement in the Gettysburg Times. The association between apple pie and America became inextricable by World War II when American soldiers would tell journalists they were fighting for "mom and apple pie." This eventually led to the phrase "As American as mom and apple pie." It became a prevalent saying in the United States during the Postwar years.

If you are a student, the first thing you should do is let your teachers know that today is No Homework Day. Once you convince them that this an important holiday, you should have lots of extra free time tonight. The next question you must ask yourself is, "What will I do with all this extra time?" Will you go out and exercise or explore nature? Will you go to a movie, or perhaps just sit around and watch television? How about taking out your guitar or another instrument you play? If you are an adult with children who usually have homework, you can rest easy knowing that you won't have to spend the day trying to motivate your children to do their work.
