It's Friendship Day...
Did you know that today was International Friendship Day?
Yes, that's right. It's mostly celebrated in other countries (especially in Asia), but in 1935 the U.S. Congress declared that the first Sunday of August would be celebrated as National Friendship Day.
Over at Patch.com, Candice Kurzweil shares some fun facts about friendship... this one is my favorite:
In 1997, Winnie the Pooh was named the world's Ambassador of Friendship by the U.N.
Why don't we hear more about Friendship Day in the U.S. anymore?
