Did you know that April 14th was National High As You Can Reach Day? I can’t believe I forgot, but hopefully I accidentally celebrated by reaching up at some point. I’ll never miss an obscure holiday again now that I follow National What Day, a recently formed blog with a catchy idea. Last month, Thoka Maer moved from Berlin to New York and dove straight into appreciating American culture by doing something special for all of the national appreciation days. She posts almost-daily animated pencil drawings relevant to which National _____ Day it is. Whether it’s pennies, pencils, or specific foods—I’m excited to see Maer’s daily reminders to celebrate the little things!
