November 3rd: National Housewife’s Day, National Sandwich Day, and National Bison Day.

👩National Housewife’s Day! This day was created to make the day a special one for the stay-at-home mom. Taking care of the children and the home is a 24/7 job that sometimes does not get the thank you that is much deserved. The term housewife is an old term stemming from the days when most families were supported by one income usually the father. Times have changed, and it is not always possible for one parent to stay at home. Typically, in today’s society, two incomes are needed to support a household. If a mother can stay at home, the term stay-at-home mom or domestic engineer is favored over the term housewife.

🍞🧀🍅🍖National Sandwich Day! The sandwich is believed to be the namesake of John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, following the claim that he was the inventor of the sandwich. While the modern sandwich is believed to be named after John Montagu, the exact circumstances of its invention and original use are the subject of debate. There is a rumor in a contemporary travel book titled Tour to London, by Pierre Jean Grosley, that formed the popular myth that bread and meat sustained Lord Sandwich at the gambling table. It is said that Lord Sandwich was a very conversant gambler and did not take the time to have a meal during his long hours gambling. When hungry, he would ask his servants to bring him slices of meat between two slices of bread. This practice was a habit which was well known to his gambling friends who soon began to order “the same as Sandwich,” and from this, the sandwich was born. Before being known as sandwiches, the food seems just to have been known as bread and meat or bread and cheese. Some of the most common sandwiches include BLT – Cheese Sandwich – Philadelphia Cheesesteak – Club Sandwich – Dagwood – French Dip – Hamburger – Monte Cristo – Muffuletta – Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich – Pilgrim – Po’boy – Reuben – Sloppy Joe – Submarine – Tuna Fish Sandwich – Veggie Sandwich – Deli Sandwich - Meatball Sub - Roast Beef - Italian Sub - Ham & Cheese...etc.

🇺🇸National Bison Day! One of our country's most majestic beast that still roams some what free. The official National Mammal of the United States, the iconic North American Bison has played a cultural, economic, and environmental role in the history of the country. Central to the livelihood of Native Americans, they are a healthy food source and vital to religious ceremonies. The once giant herds that covered the plains were nearly decimated. Now, bison populate all 50 states living in national parks, refuges, tribal and private lands. Since 2012, a movement for officially recognizing the American bison as the national mammal of the United States has taken place. The United States Senate signed resolutions yearly supporting the passage of such a proclamation and on May 9, 2016, President Barack Obama signed the law making the American bison the national mammal of the United States. Difference between the Wood Bison and the Plains Bison. The Wood Bison bulls average 1800lbs. Their taller with a square hump. Darker in color. Long hair slopping down from forehead. Little or no chap hair on forelegs. Small more pointed beard. The Plains Bison, the bulls averaged weight is 1600lbs. Stocker with a rounded hump. Light in color. Fuzzy hair on forehead. Long hair on the forelegs. And a large round beard.

How do they figure it's a stay at home job when it's the mom that does the grocery shopping🛒 and any other shopping. Transports the kids to after school activities. And even when they are at home it's clean and laundry, their right it's a 24/7 thankless job. So thank you to all the domestic engineers out there your doing a bang up job and your appreciate every day. My favorite sandwich is the Philadelphia Cheesesteak. Yum! I would love to see a real Bison. The only problem is, I would want to pet it. But I don't want Bison hoof prints run all over me.😊

Sending hoof print free hugs! And a grilled cheese sandwich for toasted loaf.🐶💕🍂💕🦃
