... or -on 'whichever of these holidays, awareness-dates &/or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'

National Day Calendar explains a bit (about the history of #Sangria) in a report linked through 'that word' below; but first I want to understand that word better. And I find you understand words better if you look at '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)
The word “Sangria” is built on words that mean Bleeding (see |Sanguine).

I sometimes get a little 'thrill' from realizing 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 Sagittarius (on the cusp of Capricorn) ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Jonah Hill, Alan Parsons (listed separately from The Alan Parsons Project), Dick Wolf, John Hillerman (Higgins on Magnum, P.I. ... but wasn't he also Mr. Feeny on Boy Meets World? ... no, that was William Daniels), spoon-bending Uri Geller, Lucy Pinder (co-star in a Robert Englund favorite), Anita Ward (with the chart-topping "Ring My Bell")

... 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 says that we (Catholics) are celebrating the season where the clergy wear Violet Vestments
