===About the Holiday===
Asparagus is a member of the lily family along with onions and garlic. It's '''Asparagus Day''' so enjoy this very healthy vegetable that contains folic acid, potassium, fiber, vitamin B6, vitamins A and C, thiamin; it’s also low in sodium, and contains no cholesterol or fat. Under ideal conditions an asparagus spear can grow 10″ in a 24-hour period. Size matters - the thicker the diameter the better. Asparagus was considered a delicacy and was prized by the Romans and Greeks. The Greek word for stalk or shoot is asparagus. Asparagus is known to have diuretic properties, be a laxative, and even a sedative. Some people notice a strong odor in their urine after eating asparagus this may be due to a sulfur compound called a mercaptan that is in asparagus which when broken down releases a funny scent.

===Gift Guidelines===
*Fresh Asparagus
*Canned Asparagus
*Frozen Asparagus
*Hollandaise sauce
*Asparagus recipes

===About the Holiday===
'''Upsy Daisy Day''', or UDD, is a day to remind us to get up gloriously, gratefully and gleefully each morning. Each day is a gift, and being able to wake up to start another one is an opportunity. If you're having trouble waking up the UDD way, then use this day as a starting point to take a new direction. Every journey begins with a single step. Make that first step today -- it doesn't have to be a big one. Perhaps, the first step is as simple as starting today in a grateful and positive mood.

This holiday was created in 2003 by Stephanie West Allen where her desire was to make humor, laughter and a positive attitude part of the UDD way. These qualities are important for health, relaxation, creativity and much more.<ref>[http://upsydaisyday.blogspot.com/ Blogspot: UpsyDaisyDay]</ref>

===Gift Guidelines===
*A "gentle wake" alarm clock
*Gourmet ground coffee to coffee grinder
*Bath robe and slippers
*Cereal

===About the Holiday===
You can't buy anything with a penny nowadays. But back in our parent's and grandparent's days there was plenty of candy for a penny; hence the name Penny Candy Store. Inflation had eroded the value of the penny and there is talk about discontinuing them. But, they are still around so today we celebrate '''Lucky Penny Day'''. When you find a penny on the street, sidewalk, in your home, folks consider that lucky. As the old superstition goes "Find a penny, pick it up, and all the day you'll have good luck". Some say that only finding a penny with the head up is good luck. If it's found heads down it's bad luck.

===Gift Guidelines===
*Drop pennies around randomly today

===About the Holiday===
'''Old Maid's Day''' is a celebration for women who have not married nor have any children at a non-typical age. To be referred to as an ''old maid'', or ''spinster'', some references cite this age as 35, while others suggest that it would be closer to 45 as a woman approaches the end of her child bearing years. This "defining" age, has probably increased over the years as couples have increasingly wed at older ages. Celebrations range from the humorous to that of proclaiming the desirability of the single life. Activities include girl parties, dating dances, and girls' trips.

Most sources point toward the end of WWII as the origins of this holiday. Due to the long war, many couples had postponed their weddings for a significant period of time, while many others had lost their boyfriends overseas during the war. At war's end, many ladies found themselves single and older combined with a shortage of marriageable men. Specifically, a few sources credit the holiday's origin to Mary Richards from Norristown, PA, who in 1948 thought that old maids should have a day of their own like Mother's Day or Father's Day.<ref>[http://articles.mcall.com/1984-06-06/news/2413307_1_maid-national-day-mother-s-day The Morning Call: At 60, Woman Is Celebrating Old Maidhood] by Tim Darragh, June 6th, 1984</ref>
