#HappyBirthday to Y'all (in the #December22 #BirthdayCohort with #MeghanTrainor @Meghan_Trainor & @AnthonyJeselnik & ALL the #FamousBirthdays @Bing lists) on #NationalDateNutBreadDay | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates @YourTango @MySundayMass

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

Holidays Calendar explains #DateNutBread (the Bread made of #Dates from the #Date-Nut Palm-Tree) 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 “Date (the #DateNut from the #DatePalm, not 'the Date "given" on the calendar')” is built on ancient words that mean |Finger, Toe.

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 Capricorn (in the wake of Sagittarius) ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Ted Cruz, Ralph Fiennes, Meghan Trainor, Diane Sawyer, Lady Bird Johnson, Lynne Thigpen (Chief of ACME Crimenet on Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?), comedian Anthony Jeselnik, Óscar Valdez

... 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 wears Violet Vestments for the Feast
