January 20: National Soup Month It makes sense that January is national soup month. After all, what better way to stay cozy than to wrap up in a blanket and eat hot soup and crusty bread for dinner? And if you have a cold, then chicken noodle soup or broth is the best way to get nutrients and warm your insides. My kids love it when I make pizza soup in the crockpot or take the time to make Italian wedding soup with mini meatballs. I’m always looking for new soup recipes, what is your favorite soup?!

January 13: Rubber Duckie Day Everyone loves the rubber duckie—the iconic yellow rubber toy is a favorite with children and adults. Even Queen Elizabeth II is rumored to have a rubber duckie sporting a crown in her bathroom, sparking a national obsession with rubber duckies a few years back in Great Britain. January 13 is Rubber Duckie Day because a 1973 Sesame Street episode showed a calendar with Rubber Duckie’s birthday reported as January 13th. So today, enjoy a nice bubble bath with a rubber duckie or purchase one for a special person in your life!
