Eat Outside Day
August 31 is Eat Outside Day. So, pack up a lunch, head on over to the park and commune with nature while you eat your meal under the Sun.
This unofficial holiday of unknown origins encourages eating outside as an excuse for people to go outdoors and take in some fresh air and enjoy some time under the Sun.
The day is also known as Eat Outdoors Day or National Eat Outside Day in the US.
How to Celebrate?
- Pack up a picnic lunch and enjoy it with family and friends in the park.
- Grill outside in the yard or take a portable grill to the park.
- If you usually have lunch at your desk at work, what about going out for your lunch break and having your meal under the Sun?
Did You Know…
…that picnics began as a meal break for hunters while hunting?

I asked my brother-in-law, the father of four boys, “If you had to do it all over again, would you still have kids?”
“Yes,” he said. “Just not these four.”

Here is the best-ever backhanded compliment from a kid about a present:
“Dear Genie, thanks for the toy. I’ll play with it when I’m bored.”

My young son declared, “When I grow up, I’m going to marry you, Mommy.”
“You can’t marry your own mother,” said his older sister.
“Then I’ll marry you.”
“You can’t marry me either.”
He looked confused, so I explained, “You can’t marry someone in your own family.”
“You mean I have to marry a total stranger?!”

Two doctors and an HMO manager die and line up together at the Pearly Gates.
One doctor steps forward and tells St. Peter, "As a pediatric surgeon, I saved hundreds of children."
St. Peter lets him enter.
The next doctor says, "As a psychiatrist, I helped thousands of people live better lives."
St. Peter tells him to go ahead.
The last man says, "I was an HMO manager. I got countless families cost-effective health care."
St. Peter replies, "You may enter. But," he adds, "you can only stay for three days. After that, you can go to hell."
