World Calendar Day
Looking Back at 1800 Day
The British East India Company has taken Bengal after the Battle of Plassey and the wealth is draining out. The muslin weavers are being forced out of business. The Permanent Settlement locks land ownership into British-friendly landlord hands. The famine of 1770 killed a third of the population. The next famine is coming.
Regional/Cultural Day
Ruz el Chakchouka
The skillet of peppers, tomatoes, and eggs that is the breakfast of champions, the lunch of workers, and the dinner of anyone who came home late. Chakchouka is North Africa's gift to hangover recovery and lazy cooking: sauteed vegetables, spiced with cumin and paprika, eggs cracked on top, served with bread. It is impossible to eat chakchouka with a fork alone. You need bread, you need hands, you need appetite. The dish exists across the Maghreb under different names, but the Algerian version, with its generous hand of harissa and its runny yolks, is the one that keeps you coming back. Every kitchen makes it, every kitchen makes it differently, and every version is the best.
Regional/Cultural Day
Algeria Battery Hunt Day
A day for checking the remote, the toy, the flashlight, the clock, and the one drawer everyone opens first.
Regional/Cultural Day
Tool Drawer Day
A day for the drawer that has three almost-right screws, old batteries, tape, string, and the answer to a small emergency.
Regional/Cultural Day
Animals of Eswatini Day
You encounter the elusively beautiful African elephant, graceful impala, and powerful lion that roam Eswatini's reserves and savannas. You find that local residents commonly keep dogs, cats, and chickens as household pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
