Happy National Chocolate Cake Day!

It was just another manic Monday until my colleague informed me today is National Chocolate Cake Day. Oh my gateaux! Who knew?! I'm so unprepared. I don't even have my party hats ready. So I alerted Flavio and I'll be stopping at Twiggs on the way home for a heavenly slab of chocolate cake and two forks to-go. I like to keep a bottle of bubbly in the fridge for impromptu celebrations, so that'll make for a perfect pairing.

Just so I'm not caught off guard again, here are some other National Food Days of note:

February 20 - National Margarita Day
March 3rd - National Mulled Wine Day (mulled wine should not be in March..?)
April - National Grilled Cheese MONTH

June 14 - National Strawberry Shortcake Day
July 29 - National Lasagna Day
