    OMG. Tomorrow is National Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. Perhaps a breakfast trip to Lazy Mike’s is in order tomorrow!

    Thanks for putting this one together! Of course I had to go for National Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. Here I am with some Ben & Jerry’s at a local park with my bicycle. I had actually bought this ice cream a couple of months ago, but I tested it last night and it was still good so not being one to waste good ice cream… breakfast!

    I went to the Franklin & Armfield Slave Office (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_and_Armfield_Office) in Alexandria first.

    Then I went to the Contrabands and Freedmen Cemetery. (https://www.alexandriava.gov/FreedmenMemorial) I learned about both of these on Bobco’s Alexandria Historical Bike Ride which he led in 2017.

    I saw my shadow on National Groundhog Day. That means six more weeks of accordion music.

    Freezing Paddles: Found a Chevy by the levee (National Day the Music Died Day)

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]21076[/ATTACH]

    P.S. I think it’s actually an Oldsmobile, but from the era of badge engineering so it might as well have been a Chevy.

    Feb 2, I went with National Tater Tots day because TOTS! I stopped by the local Harris Teeter on my way home from Rumi’s crepe ride to pick up these lovelies. I also learned that you fashion a backpack out of plastic grocery bags.

    Feb 4, I went to work and learned about some of the research that NSF is doing on vacuums. Lots of cool stuff I didn’t understand like variable electric multipole configuration and mixed-valence molecular QCA; feel free to browse for yourself here: https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/simpleSearchResult?queryText=vacuum

    But my favorite was this one, which is about the relationship people form with their Roomba: https://www.nsf.gov/discoveries/disc_summ.jsp?cntn_id=109703

    I definitely look foward to national frozen duck day, and national cut the bagel day (though I may want to keep QOTM away from that) National FrozenBagelDay could segue nicely into National Toothache Day, which could also match well with NationalIowaResults day.
