November 5th: National Doughnut Day, National Love Your Red Hair Day, Color the World Orange Day, and Job Action Day

🍩National Doughnut Day is observed in two different days, the other day being the first Friday in June. The history of the doughnut is disputed: One theory suggests Dutch settlers brought doughnuts to North America a long with other American desserts including cookies, apple pie, cream pie and cobbler. Another theory is that in 1847 at the age of 16 Hanson Gregory, an American claimed to have invented the ring-shaped doughnut while on board a lime-trading ship and later taught the technique to his mother. Anthropologist Paul R Mullins states the first cookbook mentioning doughnuts was an 1803 English volume which included doughnuts in an appendix of American recipes. A more commonly cited first written recording of the word is Washington Irving’s reference to doughnuts in 1809 in his History of New York. He described balls of sweetened dough, fried in hog’s fat and called doughnuts. Today, these nuts of fried dough are called doughnut holes. Print ads for cake and glazed donuts and doughnuts existed from at least 1896 in the United States.Peck’s Bad Boy and his Pa, written by George W. Peck and published in 1900, contained the first known printed use of donut. In 1919, the Square Donut Company of America was founded. Doughnuts come in a large variety of recipes, flavors and toppings, just like many pastries. From syrups and jellies to sprinkles and custards, top them, fill them, bake them or fry them, no matter how you like them enjoy one with a friend.

National Love Your Red Hair Day was submitted by Adrienne & Stephanie Vendetti, co-founders of How to be a Redhead in August of 2015.

🍊Color The World Orange Day is dedicated to bringing Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), also known as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), is a disorder of a portion of the body, usually starting in a limb, which manifests as extreme pain, swelling, limited range of motion, and changes to the skin and bones. It may initially affect one limb and then spread throughout the body; 35% of affected people report symptoms throughout their whole bodies.There are multiple names for this disease, as well as two subtypes. Type I (originally called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy/RSD) occurs after an illness or injury with no direct evidence of nerve damage in the affected limb. This is approximately 90% of CRPS patients. Type II (Causalgia) has distinct evidence of a nerve injury. (This was a finger in the ocean description. Very tiny!) Color the World Orange Day was founded in 2014.

👀👣Job Action Day!

Yahoo, a day for You, Monika!

I'll take one or a dozen chocolate covered yeast doughnut no matter how it's spelled. I don't have red hair. So I'll just admire those that do. I need to ask my doctor about CRPS. I don't plan on finding a job any time soon.

Sending chocolate donut hugs!🐶🐶🐶💕🍂💕🦃
