Have you ever thought about the holidays by month? January has New Year’s Day. February has Valentine’s Day. March has St Patrick’s Day, April Easter (and Taxes, if you’re a masochist, I guess), May, June, July, August…
Are there any holidays in August?
It doesn’t seem that there are any, which makes these food holidays all the better! We love that August is Brownies at Brunch Month, Catfish Month, Panini Month, Sandwihc Month (yes, different from Panini Month!) and of course… Peach Month, for which we’ve picked 31 of our favorite peach recipes from the site, one for each day of August. And as if that weren’t enough to celebrate, check out the rest of the daily food holidays for August, first in calendar format (which you can add to your personal google calendar if you’d like), then as a list:
