November 12th: National French Dip Day, National Pizza with the Works Except Anchovies Day, and National Chicken Soup for the Soul Day.

🥖National French Dip Day! Served up hot, tender slices of beef on a French roll to make a delicious sandwich. Sometimes onions, peppers or even cheese are added. However, the key ingredient is the au jus for dipping the sandwich in. Au jus is the combination of tender beef swimming in a flavor bath of pan drippings. Cole’s French Dip, the originator of the French Dip sandwich, founded National French Dip Day in 2018 in honor of the anniversary of their opening. The historic eatery opened on November 12, 1908, in downtown Los Angeles, California.

🍕National Pizza with the Works Except Anchovies Day! Pizza lovers pile on your favorite toppings on this annual pizza holiday. Olives, pepperoni, sausage, peppers onions, mushrooms, bacon and pineapple approved! Just no fishy business on this national day, or no pizza for you!

📚Chicken Soup for the Soul is a publisher and consumer goods company founded in 1993 with its headquarters in Cos Cob, Connecticut. The first book, as most subsequent titles in the series, was of true stories written by ordinary people about their own lives and soon became a best-seller. This day was created to celebrate who you are, where you have been, where you are going and who you will be thankful for when you get there.

I think I will like French Dip Day! I like philly steak cheese and a roast beef sandwich, why not add the au jus for dipping, sounds good! Pizza,💜 my favorite word. When I read the themes for today I thought we were having a total food day. Okay, so I'm not eating the book📚😀. I have my parents to thank for the person I am.

It was sunny here today but chilly.

Sending big squishy hugs!🐶💕🍂💕🦃
