Holidays Calendar explains National #Oreo Day (tho maybe not 'why they put it in #Lent (the fasting-season before #Easter)') in a report accessed through 'the bold hyperlink(s)' below; but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Lent (the 40 days (not counting Sundays) before Easter ... #Lenten)” is built on ancient words that mean “Season when the Days get Longer (Spring).”
The word "Easter (better known as #ResurrectionSunday, celebration of the day Lord Jesus Christ returned to His disciples after His execution a few days before ... #EasterIsland #EasterEgg #EasterBunny #EasterRabbit)" is built on ancient words that mean "to Shine at |Dawn, toward the Sunrise (|East)" (|Paschal ... supposedly Christian, but named after a Pagan Goddess Eostre).
The name "Oreo (Nabisco cookie ... #Oreos)" is built on forgotten foundations—maybe (ignoring 'the Racial Slur') "Gold," maybe "|Tasty, |Beautiful, |Nice, Well Done," maybe just "|O + the suffix-syllables from 'Cheerios'" ...

It 'thrills me' a little that I have the same birthday as several famous people, and enough other people get that thrill from seeing their birthday-cohort (both the currently-famous & the probably-not-yet famous) that I figure it's worth doing 'one of these entries for every birthday' ...

This Day's Birthday-Cohort

Astrologically, their sign is Pisces ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Shaquille O'Neal, Mary Wilson (a founding member of The Supremes), painter (not Ninja-Turtle) Michelangelo, Rob Reiner, Ed McMahon, Lou Costello (of Abbott & Costello), Cyrano de Bergerac, Tom Arnold, Alan Greenspan, first spacewoman (even before Nichelle Nichols' "Uhura"!) Valentina Tereshkova, journalist John Stossel, Marion Berry, Bob Wills (possibly the King of Western Swing), D.L. Hughley

... and many others (most of whom are at the 'Birthday-Cohort' link)---

you might comment telling why we should recognize a special one I missed ...

Or maybe you'd like a reminder of 'where you've seen one of the ones we DO mention'; Ask in your comment!

My Heart of the Nation calendar (which tells me which celebrations we (Catholics) are celebrating, and which color Vestments the clergy are wearing) tells us that this day's in Violet
