Daily Holidays - September 2

National Blueberry Popsicle Day National Blueberry Popsicle Day is observed annually on September 2nd.. Whether you decide to purchase a box of blueberry-flavored Popsicles or make your own, the staff for National Calendar Day is certain that it will be a tasty treat!

Popsicles were invented in 1905 by an 11-year old boy named Frank Epperson. One day he left a glass of a fruit-flavored drink with a stirring stick on his porch. When he woke the next morning, it was the drink was frozen–hence the beginning of the Popsicle! http://nationaldaycalendar.com/latest-posts/

I suspect one of those may be more significant than National Blueberry Popsicle Day.

Blueberry popsicles taste better than Spalding Baseballs as they spin past your pierced ears and I try to avoid when I can references to war......
