Well hello once again NATIONAL TODAY..<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If there is one thing that Patti and I do, it is to enjoy Raisin Bran for breakfast each and every single day.<\/p>\n

So let’s have a “Look See” at this NATIONAL TODAY Holiday.<\/p>\n

On November 15 every year<\/span>, raisin bran cereal lovers in the U.S. can raise a bowl and celebrate National Raisin Bran Cereal Day.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Since its first appearance in 1926, Raisin Bran has been a staple in many American households thanks to its high fiber content and nutritional value.<\/p>\n

There was quite a court battle over the name Raisin Bran.<\/p>\n

In 1944, Skinner Mfg Company, the originator of Raisin Bran, lost their right to the name after the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ruled that a name that described the ingredients of an item could not be appropriated as a trademark.<\/p>\n

If you want to do a lot more reading about Raisin Bran, check out the NATIONAL TODAY website..\u00a0<\/p>\n

https:\/\/nationaltoday.com\/national-raisin-bran-cereal-day\/<\/a><\/p>\n

We buy Raisin Bran at Sam’s Club in Bullhead City, Arizona. We buy eight boxes, two bags in each box, of Raisin Bran at a time. It is vastly less expensive than the smaller store boxes of Raisin Bran.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the below box are sixteen individual bags of Raisin Bran.<\/p>\n

There you all have it!<\/p>\n

Here we go yet again. National Today has two Holidays about the same topic.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

National Today? Do we really need two individual Holidays about recycling!<\/p>\n

November 15 is National Recycling Day.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to \u201cNational Geographic,\u201d Americans send 64 tons of waste to landfills during their lifetime. That\u2019s 246 million tons of waste each year. National Recycling Day aims to encourage Americans to purchase recycled products and recycle more.<\/p>\n

Recycling is a much older concept than we give it credit for. Archaeological studies have found that during periods when natural resources were sparse, waste dumps show less household waste,<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

America Recycles Day is celebrated every year on November 15.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

It is also known as National Recycling Day. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The day is all about recycling \u2014 how to recycle, which recycled products to buy, and how to reduce waste.<\/p>\n

The first America Recycles Day was announced in Florida, and over 40 states participated.<\/p>\n

Over the years, the National Recycling Coalition has worked on spreading the events throughout the country.<\/p>\n

Now there are over 3,000 events throughout all 50 states.<\/p>\n

Patti and I support recycling. In our community in Anchorage we (and this varies across Anchorage) have to drive 15 minutes to a recycling location.<\/p>\n

In other Anchorage communities, as is common elsewhere, the residents have recycle containers. We do not have recycling containers that you simply put everything into (cans, glass, cardboard, paper from newspaper to all other types of paper). We have to separate the various types of plastic (1 and 2. We can not recycle type 5 plastic). Cardboard is separate from paper. Metal (steel) cans are separate from aluminum cans etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n
