March Fun Stuff To Do!! All ideas submitted by Jeanine (moosassah)! Thanks, Jeanine!

Mar. 1 ~ National Pig Day! -- From Porky Pig to Babe, you can't help but fall in love with 'em. If there's a working farm in your area take the kids on down & give those pigs a great big HOWDY Y'ALL!

Mar. 2 ~ Read Across America -- Day OK, so maybe they weren't thinking about reading all your back issues of scrap magazines. Today is the day to do it! Grab a whole stack of them & a notebook for sketches & ideas. Don't forget your coffee!

Mar. 2 ~ Theodore Geisel's birthday (Dr. Seuss) -- Can you imagine a world without Horton or Cindy Lou Who? Celebrations of Dr. Seuss are happening at libraries across America. Check it out & try not to have as much fun as the kids do! Not into the birthday party scene? Try your hand at a Seussian rhyme for a LO.

Mar. 4 ~ International Scrapbooking Industry Day -- If you needed another excuse to scrap, here it is! AND!!! it's international. Someone, some where is scrapping every minute of this day. Why shouldn't it be you?

Mar. 12 ~ Girl Scout Day -- GOT COOKIES??? I can't swear to this but, I think this is a national day of rest for those gals after their HUGE cookie drive. LOL! Just kidding. Girl Scouts is an amazing program to help girls everywhere develop into courageous & creative women. If your girl scout isn't in a LO yet, she deserves to be. Don't have any girl scouts in your life? How about a BOM page? What made you the woman (or man) you are today? Was there a program or person out there that helped mold the person you are now?

Mar. 14 ~ National Potato Chip -- Day I know you can't eat just one!

Mar. 15 ~ True Confessions Day -- Ahem, this is a family site. Oh but what a great colorblocking LO this would make!

Mar. 17 ~ St. Patrick's Day -- YIPPEE!!! It's so great to be Irish. Everybody is Irish today. EVERYBODY! Go (with camera in hand) and check out your local Irish parades, step dancers, crowds. Find a pub & enjoy a pint & some true Irish music. Have a boiled dinner! LOL, sorry, we're Irish, not Italian!

Mar. 20 ~ World Frog Day -- I'm not sure what the frogs did to get a "World Day", but I can bet that the pigs aren't too happy about it. Poor Kermit's gonna hear it from Miss Piggy. Does your zoo have a frog exhibit? Do you know of a local pond full of frogs? Spring is near & the frogs just gave you a great opportunity for a picnic.

Mar. 26 ~ Make Up Your Own Holiday Day -- How about Mom does NOTHING day? I'm sure you don't need any help coming up with your own holidays here.

Mar. 28 ~ Something on a Stick Day -- Oh dear, who would've thought that this could be a holiday??? I don't make these things up (except for on the 26th). Guess everyone will be serving up fondue for dinner tonight? Corndogs anyone?

Mar. 30 ~ National Hot Dog Day -- "450 hot dogs are eaten every second of every day of every year, on average about 65 per person in the United States annually." Hot dog make me think of bbqs & baseball. Both are signs of warmer times ahead!
